MEAN, MEDIAN and MODE
MEAN
The Arithmetic Mean, often called the mean,
is the most frequently used measures of central
tendency. The mean is appropriate to determine
the central tendency of an interval or ratio data.
It is also known as average.
MEAN
•The
  Mean for Ungrouped Data

FORMULA:

Where,
MEAN
•   Mean for Grouped Data
The

FORMULA:

 
Where,
MEDIAN
• The Median is the midpoint of the data array.
• The median is located in the middle value of
the frequency distribution.
• It is the value that separates the upper half of
the distribution from the lower half.
• Median is appropriate measure of central
tendency for data that are ordinal or above,
but is valuable in an ordinal type of data.
MEDIAN
•Median
  for Ungrouped Data
To determine the value of median for
ungrouped data, we need to consider two rules:
If n is odd, the median is the middle ranked.
If n is even, then the median is the average of
the two middle ranked values.
FORMULA:
Where,
MEDIAN
•Median
  for Grouped Data
FORMULA:
MODE

• The Mode is the value in a data set that appears most frequently.
A data may not contain any mode if none of the values is “most
typical”
• A data set that has only one value that occur the greatest
frequency is said to be unimodal.
• If the data has two values with the same greatest frequency, both
values are considered the mode and the data set is bimodal.
• If a data set have more than two modes, and the data set is said to
multimodal.
• There are some cases when a data set values have the same
number frequency, when this occur, the data is said to be no
mode.
MODE

•Mode
  for Ungrouped Data
To determine the mode (, simply determine
the observation that appears the most in the
data set.
MODE

•Mode
  for Grouped Data
FORMULA:

Where,

is the difference between the frequencies of the


modal class and the next upper class.
is the difference between the frequencies of
the modal class and the next lower class.
EXERCISE
Part 1. Mean, Median and mode for ungrouped data.
1. Find a Mean
Six friends in MMW class of 20 students received test grade of 92,
84, 65, 76, 88, and 90
Answer: The mean of these test score is 82.5
2. Find the median of the data in the following list
a. 4, 8, 1, 14, 9, 21, 12
b. 46, 23, 92, 89, 77, 108
Answer: a. The middle number is 9
b. The two middle numbers are 77 and 89. The mean of 77
and 89 is 83. Thus 83 is the median of the data
EXERCISE
Part 2. Calculate the Mean, Median and mode of
the midterm test scores of students in MMW.
