2-Mean, Median, and Mode

Mean is the average of a set of data
8+2+3+5+7+10+6+9+9+2+1+7+7+3+10+8+8+6+9+2= 122
=6.1
20
20

Mode is the most frequently occurring raw score. It is a 2,3,7,8

and 9. So, this raw score is Multimodal.

Median
First put the score in order.
1,2,2,2,3,3,5,6,6,7,7,7,8,8,8,9,9,9,10,10
Then, because it is an even number of score 20,estimate the Median as
mid point of the middle score pair.
7+7/2=14/2=7 so, the Median is 7

The interpretation of each of the above statistics:

A: the mean indicates in my data that average students score is 6.1
from 10 and that is good. Also the median of students score is 7. Mode
is multimodal which means (2,7,8,9) is frequency score. Finally,
stander deviation means the distance between each score is 2.88
between students to other.
B: Because of the median is greater than the mean, so it is negative
skew.
C: Appropriate measure of central tendency for this distribution is
Median, because the mean effected by extreme score.
D: Interpret the standard deviation in terms of what it tells about this
distribution of scores.
2:3 of the score will be within one standard deviation of the mean. For
this data set, 2:3 of the score will be between 6.1 or + 2.88
6.12.88= 3.22
6.1+ 2.88= 8.98
It means approximately 2:3 of score will be between 3.22 and 8.98.

In conclusion, after did the statistic on this idea, I am sure that

quiz was good for students in Technology Class because the mean and
media grade were great. Also, the skew is negative that means high
score is the most. That is the requirement from the quiz is high score
indicate to high understanding for the Technology tutorials in the class.
