00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.712
Here is the problem: Data: 11, 15, 24, 7, 5.

2
00:00:06.162 --> 00:00:09.157
Measures of central tendency for a list of numbers.

3
00:00:09.957 --> 00:00:12.813
Sort the data from smallest to largest.

4
00:00:13.263 --> 00:00:16.920
Mean: add the values and divide by how many there are.

5
00:00:17.370 --> 00:00:23.895
Median: the middle value of the sorted list. With 5 values (odd), the median is value number 3.

6
00:00:24.345 --> 00:00:30.893
Mode: the value(s) that appear most often. Every value appears exactly once, so there is no mode.

7
00:00:31.693 --> 00:00:34.317
Range: largest minus smallest.

8
00:00:35.117 --> 00:00:43.766
So the answer is Mean equals 12.4; Median equals 11; Mode equals no mode; Range equals 19.

9
00:00:44.216 --> 00:00:53.968
The mean balances all values, the median splits the sorted data in half and is less affected by outliers, and the mode is the most common value.

10
00:00:54.768 --> 00:01:01.049
Sum 62 equals mean times n equals 12.4 times 5 equals 62.
