Exercises: Measures of Central Tendency: Mean, Median, and Mode
Work through each section in order. Order the data first before finding a median.
Recall / Warm-Up
Add 6 + 8 + 7 + 9 + 10.
Divide 40 by 5.
Arrange 9, 2, 7 from smallest to largest.
9, 7, 2
2, 7, 9
7, 2, 9
Fluency Practice
Find the mean of 12, 15, 18, 15.
What is the mean of 5, 9, 4, 6, 6?
30 — this is only the sum; the answer still needs to be divided by how many values there are
6
5
Find the median of 3, 7, 5, 9, 4. (Order the data first.)
Find the median of 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10 (already ordered, six values).
5, taking only the first of the two middle values instead of averaging both middles together
7, taking only the second of the two middle values instead of averaging both middles together
6, the average of the two middle values, 5 and 7
Find the mode of 4, 5, 5, 6, 5, 8.
