Measures of Central

Tendency
Statistics
-the practice or science of collecting
and analyzing numerical data in
large quantities

-collecting and understanding data

Group and Ungroup Data
Grouped data means the data (or
information) given in the form of class
intervals such as 0-20, 20-40 and so on.

Ungrouped data is defined as the data given

as individual points values or numbers)
such as 15, 63, 34, 20, 25, and so on.
Measures of Central Tendency
A measure of central tendency is a
single value that attempts to
describe a set of data by identifying
the central position within that set
of data
MEAN, MEDIAN, MODE.
Mean = 65.76
The sum of all the numbers in the
data set divided by the numbers of
elements

36, 68, 84, 76, 61 ,61 85, 54, 44, 70, 72,
83, 61 = 855 / 13 =
Median = 68
The element in the middle of the data set
after it’s arrange in order ,

34, 44, 54, 61, 61, 61, 68, 70, 72, 76, 83, 84,85

What If?
34, 44, 54, 61, 61, 61, 68, 72, 76, 83, 84,85
=?
Median =
When there is an even number of values in a set of
data, there is no single middle value. That makes
it a little more difficult to find the median. In this
case, you take the middle two values and add
them together. Then you divide the sum of the
values by 2

What If?
34, 44, 54, 61, 61, 61, 68, 72, 76, 83, 84,85 = ?
Mode = 61
The value that occurs most frequently
in the data set

34, 44, 54, 61, 61, 61, 68, 70, 72, 76, 83,
84,85
