What is the MEAN?
How do we find it?
The mean is the numerical average
of the data set.
The mean is found by adding all the
values in the set, then dividing the
sum by the number of values.

What is the MEDIAN?
How do we find it?
The MEDIAN is the number that is in the
middle of a set of data
1. Arrange the numbers in the set in
order from least to greatest.
2. Then find the number that is in the
middle.
978473 88 10063 979586
The median is 88.
Half the numbers are
less than the median.
Half the numbers are
greater than the median.
Median
Sounds like
MEDIUM
Think middle when you hear median.
How do we find
the MEDIAN
when two numbers are in the middle?
1. Add the two numbers.
2. Then divide by 2.
978473 88 10063 9795
88 + 95 = 183
183 ÷ 2 The median is
91.5
What is the MODE?
How do we find it?
The MODE is the piece of data that
occurs most frequently in the data set.
A set of data can have:
• One mode
• More than one mode
• No mode
978473 88 10063 979586
The value 97 appears twice.
All other numbers appear just once.
97 is the MODE
A Hint for remembering the MODE…
