6. Course 1 6-2 Mean, Median, Mode and Range Players on a volleyball team measured how high they could jump. The results in inches are recorded in the table. One way to describe this data set is to find the mean. The mean is the sum of all the items divided by the number of items in the set. Sometimes called the average. The mean of this set of data is the average height that the vollyball team could jump. 13232120212418

11. Course 1 6-2 Mean, Median, Mode and Range Some other descriptions of a set of data are called the median, mode, and range. The range is the difference between the least and greatest values in the set. The median is the middle value when the data are in numerical order, or the mean of the two middle values if there are an even number of items. The mode is the value or values that occur most often. There may be more than one mode for a data set. When all values occur an equal number of times, the data set has no mode.

12. Course 1 6-2 Mean, Median, Mode and Range Additional Example 2: Finding the Mean, Median, Mode, and Range of a Data Set Write the data in numerical order.11, 12, 14, 15 range: 15 – 11 = 4 mean: 12 + 11 + 14 + 15 4 = 13 median: 11, 12, 14, 15 12 + 14 2 = 13 mode: none The mean is 13, the median is 13, there is no mode, and the range is 4. There are an even number of items, so find the mean of the two middle values. Find the mean, median, mode, and range of the data set.
