00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.700
Here is the problem: Data: 8, 16, 23, 16, 5, 20.

2
00:00:06.151 --> 00:00:09.088
Measures of central tendency for a list of numbers.

3
00:00:09.888 --> 00:00:12.837
Sort the data from smallest to largest.

4
00:00:13.287 --> 00:00:16.991
Mean: add the values and divide by how many there are.

5
00:00:17.441 --> 00:00:25.545
Median: the middle value of the sorted list. With 6 values (even), the median is the average of values 3 and 4.

6
00:00:25.995 --> 00:00:30.593
Mode: the value(s) that appear most often. Most frequent: 16.

7
00:00:31.393 --> 00:00:34.086
Range: largest minus smallest.

8
00:00:34.887 --> 00:00:46.334
So the answer is Mean equals 14.66666667; Median equals 16; Mode equals 16; Range equals 18.

9
00:00:46.784 --> 00:00:56.513
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
00:00:57.313 --> 00:01:07.356
Sum 88 equals mean times n equals 14.66666667 times 6 equals 88.
