Mean
How do you calculate mean and what does it tell you about the data?
Mean is calculated by dividing the sum of the data points by the total number of data points. The mean is also known as the "average" and gives us one value that represents the entire set of data.
Mode
How do you calculate the mode and what does it tell us about the data?
Mode is the value in the data set that occurs most often. You can have no mode, 1 mode, or more than 1 mode in a data set. The mode tells us the data point that is most frequent. Mode is often used when there is a voting situation.
Median
