Averages Mean – Is known as “Average.

To find the mean, add up all the numbers given and then divide them by the number of numbers. Note, it is common for the mean to not come form the original list of given numbers. You should not assume that your mean will be one of your original given numbers.

Median - Is the "middle" value in the list of given numbers. To find the median, your numbers have to be listed in numerical order, so you may have to rewrite your given list.

Mode - Is the value that occurs most often in your given numbers. If no number is repeated, then there is no mode for the list.

Range - Is the difference between the largest and smallest given values.

Examplehttp://www.purplemath.com/modules/meanmode.htm

Find the mean, median, mode, and range for the following list of values:

13, 18, 13, 14, 13, 16, 14, 21, 13

The MEAN is the usual average, you need to add up all the numbers and then divide your total by the number of numbers given:

(13 + 18 + 13 + 14 + 13 + 16 + 14 + 21 + 13) ÷ 9 = 15 Mean is 15

The MEDIAN is the middle value, so you will need to rewrite the list in numerical order:

13, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 16, 18, 21

There are nine numbers in the list, so the middle one will be the (9 + 1) ÷ 2 = 10 ÷ 2 = 5th number:

13, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 16, 18, 21 Median is 14

Example Continued

The MODE is the number that is repeated more often than any other, so 13

is the mode.

13, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 16, 18, 21

The largest value in the list is 21, and the smallest is 13, so the RANGE is 21

– 13 = 8.

13, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 16, 18, 21

MEAN: 15

MEDIAN: 14

MODE: 13

RANGE: 8
