MEASURES OF VARIABILITY FOR UNGROUPED DATA
1. In your own words, explain the process of finding the
measures of central tendencies

Measures of central tendency are statistical tools used to

determine the central or typical value of a dataset. There
are three common measures of central tendency: the
mean, median, and mode.

2. Does frequency and class width affect the results of

finding the measures of central tendency.
Why and Why not?

Yes, frequency and class width can affect the results of

finding the measures of central tendency. The class width
determines the range of values included in each class, and
a narrower class width provides more detail but may result
in smaller frequencies. Meanwhile, the frequency of each
class represents the number of data points within that
class and carries more weight in determining the measures
of central tendency.

3. Give each one an example on how measures of central

tendency and variability may be used in everyday life.
Support your answer
To summarize and interpret data, central tendency and
variability measures are frequently employed in daily life.
One indicator of central tendency that can show a
product's overall popularity is its average rating on an e-
commerce website. A measure of variability that
demonstrates how varied the consumer opinions are is the
range of ratings or the standard deviation of ratings.
Another instance is in education, where the standard
deviation or variance can be used as measures of
variability to demonstrate the degree of dispersion of the
results, while the mean score on a test can be used as a
measure of central tendency to indicate central tendency.
Individuals can use these metrics to get knowledge from
data and make wise judgments in their daily life.
