Measures of Central Tendencies
Mean Median Mode

Mean = Average 8, 10, 6, 9, 8, 7

Hint: median of a highway is in the middle.
Median: is the middle number when the data is arranged in numerical order. Hint: median of a highway is in the middle. 11, 9, 6, 14, 5, 5, 13 20, 30, 40, 10, 20, 90, 70, 80

Real World Application
Name the correct measure of central tendency for each situation… 1. We want to find the average age of 6th graders on our team. 2. The most popular school lunch. 3. Without calculating, would the mean, median, or mode be most affected by eliminating 1,000 from the list below? Which would be least affected? Explain. 50, , 60, 75, 1,000, 90, 100
12
Let's review In your groups, create a data set of 10 numbers with a median of 8 and a mode of 10. Please do this on a piece of loose-leaf to be handed in at the end of class. (Possible answer: 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 9, 10, 10, 10, 11)
