Example Questions
Example Question #1 : Find Measures Of Center, Variability, And Patterns In Data: Ccss.Math.Content.6.Sp.B.5c
Subtract the mode from the median in this set of numbers:
9080, 9008, 9800, 9099, 9009, 9090, 9008
First, order the numbers from least to greatest:
Then, find the mode (the most recurring number): 9008
Then, find the median (the middle number):
Finally, subtract the mode from the median:
Answer: 72.
Example Question #1 : Find Measures Of Center, Variability, And Patterns In Data: Ccss.Math.Content.6.Sp.B.5c
Consider the data set:
What is the difference between the mean of this set and the median of this set?
To get the mean, add the numbers and divide by 8:
To get the median, find the mean of the fourth- and fifth-highest elements (the ones in the middle):
The difference is
Example Question #1 : Range
The difference between 2996 and 4515 is closest to
Round 2996 up to 3000 and 4515 down to 4500. The difference between 4500 and 3000 is 1500.
Example Question #11 : Mean
In a group of 4 books, the average number of pages is is 10. Juan adds a book with 20 pages to the group. What is the new average number of pages?
If the average of 4 books was 10, then the total number of pages was . Adding in the 20 new pages, but now dividing by 5 you get .
Example Question #1 : How To Find Mean
Give the mean of the data set (nearest tenth, if applicable):
Add the six elements and divide the sum by 6:
Example Question #2 : How To Find Mean

54, 41, 99, 120, 66.
Firrst, add the numbers:
Then, divide by the amount of numbers in the set:
Answer: The mean is 76.
Example Question #21 : Data Analysis And Probability
Give the mean of the following eight scores:
Divide the sum of the scores by eight:
Example Question #1 : Find Measures Of Center, Variability, And Patterns In Data: Ccss.Math.Content.6.Sp.B.5c
Give the mean of the following nine scores:
Divide the sum of the scores by nine:
Example Question #13 : Mean
The average age of 4 people is 12. What will be the sum of their ages in 3 years?
The current sum of their ages is . Since all 4 people will gain 3 years in age, we have to add 12 to the current sum.
Example Question #1 : How To Find Mean
Give the mean of the following data set:
Since there are 16 elements, divide their sum by 16 to get the mean:
