2. LESSON OBJECTIVES:
I. To know what average is
II. To know the steps to find average
III. To know what median is
IV. To know the steps to find median
V. To solve some problems
3. What is average?
Average (Mostly known as
mean) is the number
expressing the central value of
data.
4. How do I find the average of
(9-8-1)
Step 1: Add the values (Variable
1)
Step 2: Add the number of
values (Variable 2)
Step 3(Final): Divide “Variable 1”
by “Variable 2” (Variable 3), So
“Variable 3” is the average
Variables:
Variable 1: 18
Variable 2: 3
Variable 3: 6
