MEASURES OF CENTRAL TENDENCY Name: ___________________________________ Score: _____________

 MEAN ( x ) – or average, is the sum of all number divided by n. Grade 10- _____________________ Date: ______________
 MEDIAN (~ x ) is the middle number in a set of data is arranges in descending order. I. Find the MEAN, MEDIAN, MODE for each ungroup data set.
 MODE ( ^x ) is the number that occurs most often in a set of data. 1. 67, 89, 93, 77, 84, 93, 85
For UNGROUP DATA 2. 32, 43, 31, 52, 43, 28, 39, 43, 45
Example: II. Complete the table and solve for the MEAN, MEDIAN, MODE.
The following is the list of the weekly savings of ten students. 3. The following table gives the frequency distribution of the number.

∑ x = 60+50+ 40+50+70+ 50+ 50+80+70+70+ 40 = 630 =57.27 19 – 21 14
n 11 11 16 – 18 20
MEDIAN MODE 13 – 15 12
Arrange the data from least to greatest: 40 – 2 Clearly, the mode is 50 10 - 12 4
40, 40, 50, 50, 50, 50, 60, 70, 70, 70, 80 N = 11 50 – 4
(N + 1) 11+ 1 12 60 – 1 because it has the highest

2 2 2 70 – 3 frequency.
80 – 1 Savings Frequency x fx LB <cf Frequency
The median is 6th number, therefore median is 50.
For GROUP DATA 41 – 45 1
Example: 36 – 40 8
The frequency table below shows the height of 40 students in a high school. 31 – 35 8
