ACT Preparation / Unit 15   ACT 1407 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Mean, Median and Mode

Captions available

The idea

The mean is the sum divided by the count. The median is the middle value of the ordered data, or the average of the two middle values. The mode is the most frequent value.

In practice

For 3, 5, 5, 8, 9: mean 30/5 = 6, median 5, mode 5.

Where people slip

Order the data before finding the median.
