The document contains sample questions about statistical concepts such as mean, median, mode, frequency, and formulas to calculate these measures of central tendency. It also includes examples of calculating the mean, median, and mode for various data sets, as well as the effect of outliers on changing the values of each measure. The questions cover key topics like defining statistical terminology, identifying appropriate formulas, and computing mean, median, and mode from raw data and grouped data.

A measure of central tendency (also referred to as measures of center or central location) is a summary measure that attempts to describe a whole set of data with a single value that represents the middle or center of its distribution. The are some limitations to using the mode. In some distributions, the mode may not reflect the centre of the distribution very well. When the distribution of retirement age is ordered from lowest to highest value, it is easy to see that the centre of the distribution is 57 years, but the mode is lower, at 54 years.
A measure of central tendency (also referred to as measures of centre or central location) is a summary measure that attempts to describe a whole set of data with a single value that represents the middle or centre of its distribution.
In statistics, a central tendency is a central or typical value for a probability distribution. Colloquially, measures of central tendency are often called averages. The term central tendency dates from the late 1920s. The most common measures of central tendency are the arithmetic mean, the median, and the mode.
