Marielle wants to know the average amount of money that the High School
Students of Our Lady of Lourdes School of Bauan Inc. spend daily, so she asked
some of the Grade 8 and Senior High School Students. Luckily, there are some
of the students cooperated with her task, she asked them one-by-one with the
question “How much money do you spend daily?”. The students answered
different amounts of money.
Below are the data that she gathered.

As you can see on the table
spent everyday
above, the students’
Paul Andrei(SHS) ₱50
Mark Dominic(SHS) ₱50 answers are ranging from
Mark ₱50 ₱50-₱500 pesos. Marielle
Davidson(Grade8) managed to gather 26
Hannah(Grade8) ₱50 respondents and she got
Ysa(Grade8) ₱50 26 answer from them. She
Juliegrace(Grade8) ₱50 gathered 7 data.

Ghian(Grade8) ₱150 are able to get how many
Zean(Grade8) ₱200 combinations we need to
Janna(Grade8) ₱200 do. Based on my
Elijah(Grade8) ₱250 computation with the use
Lex(Grade8) ₱250 of calculator (7C2), I need
Lawrence(Grade8) ₱250 to show 21 samples (X).

 Amount of Money Respondents Based on the 7 respondents, the
50 7 only spend 50 pesos of their daily
60 2 allowance for their jeepney fares,
100 7 snacks, and other expenses. While
150 3 based on the other 2 respondents,
200 2 they only spend 60 pesos, the
250 3 another 7 respondents says that
500 2 they spend 100 pesos, the other 3
spends 150 pesos, the other 2
spends 200 pesos, the other 3 spends 250 pesos and lastly, 2 respondents says
that they spend 500 pesos which is a really expensive amount of money to be
spent daily.

Sample (X) Mean

At this table, we need to compute 50,60 55
for the mean of the combination 50,100 75
of sample(X), 50,150 100
50,200 125
All we need to do is to add the
50,250 150
two numbers, then we need to
50,500 275
divide it into two so that we can
60,100 80
get the mean.
60,150 105
The mean is the average of a set 60,200 130
of numbers. To find the mean of 60,250 155
a data set, add up all of the 60,500 280
numbers in the set, and then 100,150 125
divide that total by the number 100,200 150

of numbers in the set. 100,250 175

100,500 300
Example: 150,200 175

10 + 10 = 20 150,250 200
150,500 325
Then you’ll divide 20 by 2 200,250 225

So 20÷2 = 10 200,500 350

250,500 375
The mean is 10.
Sample mean and frequency, after looking for the mean, we are now going to
look for the frequency of each mean, we have to tally how many times does that
sample mean was repeated. Then later on, we will use those frequencies in
solving or getting the Probability.

At this table I’ve computed for the probability, it is done by dividing the
frequency by the total number of frequencies. It can be in a fraction, decimal or
even in percentage form. The sum of all the probabilities should always be equal
to 1 or 100%, if it fails to have the sum of 1 or 100% then you should recheck
all the procedures that you’ve done, you might have forgotten something.
On the last column I also solved for the 𝝁 by simply multiplying the Sample

Mean (𝑿 ̅ ).

Total 21 =1 𝝁 = 𝟏𝟖𝟖. 𝟏𝟐 Variance = 9135.69

On this table I computed or all the needed data to compute the table, we would
also use those data to compute for the variance. First id when we subtracted
the 𝝁 from the Sample mean (𝑿 ̅ ), then after getting the difference we squared
the answer and then we got the answer for the variance which is equal to
9135.69.
Below is the HISTOGRAM that I made with the use of the collected data from
the respondents.

Intepretation
And it shows that the average amount of money that the students of Our Lady
of Lourdes School of Bauan Inc. is around ₱105.00, ₱150.00, and ₱175.00
At this time, that amount of money is a small amount. One thing I realized is
that, as time passes by, the amount of money is getting smaller and smaller.
When I was elementary, my daily allowance is ₱20.00, at morning I just walk to
school from our house, at recess time, I would use my ₱20.00 to buy some
snacks. Buying biscuit worth ₱5.00 and a juice for another ₱3.00 could get me
full. I also eat my packed lunch at lunchtime, and as I walk home to our house I
still have ₱12.00 which I would use to buy an Ice Cream worth ₱10.00.
But when I reached High School it all changed, my daily allowance is ₱150.00.
The fare is about ₱50.00 and I would use my ₱100.00 to buy my lunch and my
snacks, which obviously don’t make me full at all, after classes we go at some
fast food chains, food stalls, and restaurants to satisfy our cravings by ordering
foods and going on a food tips. But still, there are times where I have to skip
lunch just to save money for myself. So that when I need to buy something for
myself, I wouldn’t ask money from my parents.
All of the students can afford to buy something to eat. The amount of money
that they spend must be big, but we cannot blame them because the prices of
foods are really high, far from what our parents have experienced. Whenever
they tells us that the only spend a centavo for buying a candy or for buying
biscuit.
Other students should also consider saving up money so that they will no longer
ask their parents for money. They should try the ₱20.00per day challenge. I’ve
done it before, and you need to be extra careful on spending money.
Conclusion
Being a student is hard, but working is even harder, as a student of a private
school, I should be thankful, because my parents can send me off to a nice
school. I will forever be thankful because they always gave me everything, for
other people, it may not be the best, but for having a simple family like us, it was
the best that they could give for me. That’s why on every money that I spend, I
spend it wisely, I always prioritize my needs before my wants. Because our
parents are also growing old, they are not always strong to work and earn
money to support our needs.
I believe that here in our school, there are students who have a bigger daily
allowance. They can spend more money on foods, and they can also afford to
buy everything they want, supported by their parents. They are the kind of
students who doesn’t have any problem in spending money.
Here in our generation, “Money makes the world go around”. You cannot have
anything if you don’t have money. You cannot eat if you don’t have money to
buy foods. You cannot study if you could afford to pay for the school fees.
Nothing is free.
We still have a long way to go before we reach our dreams. That is why we
should always make right decisions at everything. We should always persevere,
we should be patient, and we should study hard and work hard. As a Grade 11
student, I can’t wait to graduate and make my parents proud, I can’t wait to pay
them back everything that they have spent on me specially the unending
support and moral guidance.
