Eddie Alvarez; Marco soto; chantz skaer; Mariela ramirez;anna perales Eddie Alvarez The "mean" is the "average" you're used to, where you add up all the numbers and then divide by the number of numbers. Eddie Alvarez It is easy to calculate: add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are. The cost of a tank of gas at nine different gas stations is shown below. What was the mean cost of a tank of gas? Cost of Gas: $17, $18, $22, $15, $17, $16, $25, $21, and $20 25+22+21+20+18+17+17 +16=156 8 156= 19.4 Anna perales The median number is the number that falls directly in the middle of the list. To find the median, the data should be organized into sequential order. The middle value in the sequence in the median, for example in the sequence 3,6,9, 6 would be the median. 3, 5, 7, 12, 13, 14, 21, 23, 23, 23, 23, 29, 39, 40, 56 .The median value of this set of numbers is 23. Marco soto The "mode" is the value that occurs most often. Marco Soto The number repeated most often. This list has two values that are repeated three times. Kate seen 8 blue car, 15 red cars, 19 pink cars, 19 brown cars, 28 white cars, 29 green cars, and 35 black cars {8, 15, 19, 19, 28, 29, 35}19 appears twice, all the rest appear only once, so 19 is the mode Chantz skaer The "range" is just the difference between the largest and smallest values Chantz skaer Just order the data from least to greatest, find the lowest and highest numbers in that set, and then subtract the lowest number from the highest number. 13, 18, 13, 14, 13, 16, 14, 21, 13The mean is the usual average, so:(13 + 18 + 13 + 14 + 13 + 16 + 14 + 21 + 13) ÷ 9 = 15 Mariela Ramirez http://www.mathsisfun.com/mean.html http://www.purplemath.com/modules/me anmode.htm http://www.ask.com/web?q=what+is+median http://www.purplemath.com/modules/mean +in+math&qsrc=178&o=0&l=dir mode.htm http://www.ask.com/web?qsrc=1&o=0&l=dir& http://www.ask.com/web?q=how+to+find+ q=how+to+find+the+median&oo=0 the+range&qsrc=0&o=0&l=dir&oo=0 http://www.purplemath.com/modules/mea nmode.htm Mariela Ramirez
