Mean from a Frequency Table
Calculating the Mean: If there are large amounts of data, it is
easier if it is displayed in a frequency table.
Example 1.
The number of goals scored by a team in 20 games are given below :
3,2,4,2,2,3,2,2,0,5,1,1,2,3,0,2,1,4,1,0

The 10th value is 2
The 11th value is 2
∴ MEDIAN = ( 2+2 ) / 2 = 4/2 = 2
Grouped Data
Large quantities of data can be much more easily viewed and managed if
placed in groups in a frequency table. Grouped data does not enable
exact values for the mean, median and mode to be calculated. Alternate
methods of analyising the data have to be employed.
Example 1.
During 3 hours at Heathrow airport 55 aircraft arrived late. The number of
minutes they were late is shown in the grouped frequency table below.
Data is
grouped
into 6 class
intervals of
width 10.

Grouped Data
Estimating the Mean: An estimate for the mean can be obtained by
assuming that each of the raw data values takes the midpoint value of
the interval in which it has been placed.

During 3 hours at Heathrow airport 55 aircraft arrived late. The number of
minutes they were late is shown in the grouped frequency table below.

The Modal Class
The modal class is simply the class interval of highest frequency.

minutes they were late is shown in the grouped frequency table below.
