CENTRAL
TENDENCY
 CENTRAL
TENDENCY
It is the numerical or statistical value that tends to locate
the middle set of data. It provides a very convenient way
of describing a set of scores with a single number that
describes the performance of the group.

 MEAN
The common average we know 1 4
 MEAN
 It is the most used average or measure of
central tendency.
 The symbol commonly used to note mean is
(x-bar)
 To find , we use the formula:

MEDIAN
Visually finding the middle 2 8
 MEDIAN
 It is the value of the middle term when data
are arranged in either ascending or
descending order.
 The symbol commonly used to note median
is (x-tilde)

9
 MEDIAN
 To find , we should remember 2 things:
1. We must arrange the values in ascending or
descending order.
2. Take note of the items in the middle position. If
there is an odd number of items, the middle term
is the median. If there is an even number of items,
the median is taken as the arithmetic mean of the
two values falling in the middle.

MODE
The count matters. 3 14
 MODE
 It is referred to as the most frequently
occurring value in each set of data.
 The symbol for mode is (x-hut).
 A single data set can have 1 (unimodal), 2
(bimodal), 3 (trimodal) or more (multimodal).
But it can also be no mode at all.

Identify the mode of the following data sets. Also, describe the
mode exhibited in each data sets:

1.) 5, 7, 6, 2, 5, 8
2.) 13, 23, 23, 45, 78, 12, 62, 45
3.) 2, 2, 5, 7, 5, 9, 3, 4, 8, 9, 7
4.) 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
