Central Tendency
When you have a “set of data” (or numbers), there are 2 different
ways you can find the center of the data.
1) Mean2) Median
Let’s look at these 2 different ways to find the center using the following…
Set of Numbers: 2, 3, 1, 1, 0, 1, 2, 4

Mean = Average

What is the Mean?
The Mean is the average.2 simple steps will give you the mean of a set of
numbers.
Mean = Average
Your report card has an average on it.
Step 1
Add the numbers.
Step 2
Divide by the # of items in the dataset.

Set of Numbers: 2, 3, 1, 1, 0, 1, 2, 4
Add the numbers: 2 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 2 + 4 =
Divide by total items: 14 ÷ 8 =
Mean
Step 1
Add the numbers.
Step 2
Divide by the # of items in the dataset.
14
Example of Mean:
1.75

What is the Median?
The Median is the middle number. How do you find the Median?
Median = Middle
ORDER
the numbers.
If there is just 1 middle #:
your done!
If there are 2 middle #’s
FIND
the middle #.Average the 2
middle numbers.

ORDER
the numbers.
If there is just 1 middle #:
your done!
If there are 2 middle #’s
FIND
the middle #.Average the 2
middle numbers.
Add the 2 middle numbers
Then, Divide by 2
Example of Median
Set of Numbers: 2, 3, 1, 1, 0, 1, 2, 4
Arrange in order: 0, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4
1 + 2 = 3 3 ÷ 2 =
Median
1.5

Range
Range = Biggest – Smallest

What is the Range?
The Range is not a form of central tendency, but it is another way to get information from a “set of numbers”.
The range describes the spread of the dataset.
The Range is the difference between the biggest number and the smallest number.
Range = Biggest - Smallest

Example of Range
Range = Biggest – Smallest
Set of Numbers: 2, 3, 1, 1, 0, 1, 2, 4
Subtract: 4 – 0 =
Range

Closure
What did we learn today (key words):
Mean = _________________ ? Median = _________________ ?Range = _________________ ?
Which central tendency requires you to first put the numbers in order?
When finding the median, what do you do if there are 2 middle numbers?
Average
MiddleMostBiggest – Smallest
Average the two middle numbers by adding them together and dividing by 2.
