3. MEAN
The mean is the average or a
calculated central value of a set of
numbers that is used to measure the
central tendency of the data. Central
tendency is the statistical measure
that recognizes the entire set of data
or distribution through a single value.
5. Examples:
Find the mean of 10,20,30,40,50.
Mean = 10 + 20 + 30 + 40 + 50 / 5
= 150 / 50
= 30
Find the mean terms of 56, 32, 48, 29, 13, 36, 47.
Mean = 56 + 32 + 48 + 29 + 13 + 36 + 47 / 7
= 261 / 7
= 37.29
6. Let’s try this!
Find the mean terms of 66, 55, 33, 22, 44, 77, 88.
Find the mean of the following group of numbers 67, 89,
45, 87, 91, 35,75, 89.
Mean = 66 + 55+ 33 + 22 + 44 + 77 + 88 / 7
= 385 / 7
= 55
Mean = 67 + 89 + 45 + 87 + 91 + 35 + 75 + 89 / 8
= 578 / 8
= 72.3
7. MEAN GROUP DATA
Mean of grouped data is the process of finding
the average of a set of data that are grouped
together in different categories. To determine
the mean of a grouped data, a frequency table
is required to set across the frequencies of the
data which makes it simple to calculate.
8. Formula:
x̄ = Σf•m/Σf
Where:
• x̄ is the mean value of the set of given data
• f is the frequency of each class
• m or x is the mid-interval value of each class
