...OF CENTRAL MODE
TENDENCY
MEASURES...
The mode is the number that
appears most frequently in a list
of numbers. For example, if you
Include the mode, median, and have the numbers 2, 3, 3, 4, 4,
mean, are ways to describe the 4, and 5, the mode is 4 because
it appears more often than any
"center" or "average" of a set of other number.

...OF RANGE
VARIATION The range is the simplest
measure of variation. It's the
difference between the largest

(smallest) = 8.
...OF LOCATION
QUARTILES
Quartiles divide a dataset into
four equal parts, each
containing 25% of the data. The
Are used to divide a dataset into three quartiles are:
specific segments, helping to
identify where certain data points FIRST QUARTILE (Q1)
SECOND QUARTILE (Q2)
are located within the dataset THIRD QUARTILE (Q3)
MEDIAN
The median is the middle number
when a list of numbers is
arranged in order from smallest
to largest. Imagine you have the
numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9. The
median is 5 because it's right in
the middle.
VARIANCE
Variance tells you how much
individual data points deviate
from the mean (average). To
calculate it, you subtract the
mean from each data point,
square the result (to eliminate
negative values).
DECILES
Deciles divide a dataset into ten
equal parts, with each part
containing 10% of the data. For
example, the 1st decile (D1)
represents the data below which
10% of the values fall, and the
5th decile (D5) represents the
median.
MEAN
The mean is what most people
call the "average." For example,
if you have 2, 3, and 4, you add
them together (2 + 3 + 4 = 9)
and then divide by 3 (because
there are 3 numbers). So, the
mean is 9 / 3 = 3.
STANDARD DEVIATION
The standard deviation is a
measure closely related to
variance. It's the square root of
the variance. In other words, it's
the "average" amount by which
data points deviate from the
mean.
PERCENTILES
Percentiles are used to divide a
dataset into 100 equal parts,
with each part representing 1%
of the data.
