Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between mean, median, and mode?
The mean is the average of a dataset, calculated by summing all values and dividing by the count. The median is the middle value when the data is ordered. The mode is the value that appears most frequently in a dataset.
When should I use the mean, median, or mode?
The mean is best for symmetrical data without outliers. The median is preferred for skewed data or data with outliers, as it’s less affected by extreme values. The mode is useful for categorical data or to identify the most common item.
How do you calculate the average of a set of numbers?
To calculate the average (mean) of a set of numbers, you add up all the numbers in the set and then divide the sum by the total count of numbers in the set.
What is central tendency in statistics?
Central tendency refers to the central or typical value of a probability distribution. The most common measures of central tendency are the mean, median, and mode, which aim to identify a single value that best represents the entire dataset.
