DATA HANDLING: MEAN, MEDIAN, MODE
Mean (average) = 𝒔𝒖𝒎 𝒐𝒇 𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒗𝒂𝒍𝒖𝒆𝒔 𝒊𝒏 𝒅𝒂𝒕𝒂 𝒔𝒆𝒕 𝒕𝒐𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒏𝒖𝒎𝒃𝒆𝒓 𝒐𝒇 𝒗𝒂𝒍𝒖𝒆𝒔 𝒊𝒏 𝒅𝒂𝒕𝒂 𝒔𝒆𝒕
Median = middle value
Mode = value occurs the most
Range = highest value – lowest value

Using Geogebra in Data Handling Finding mean, median & mode: The following are the marks for a class test: 46, 27, 39, 51, 38, 40, 13, 25, 53, 44, 39, 25, 33, 23, 41, 25, 47, 29, 47, 19, 45, 22, 46 Methods on Geogebra: Using input bar Using input bar and spreadsheet view
Method 1: Using input bar Input bar results after pressing enter Explanation of calculation Input bar Input help button
Method 2: Using input bar & spreadsheet view
Method 2: Using input bar & spreadsheet view Click create – list – the following will appear in the algebra window
Method 2: Using input bar & spreadsheet view Type the following into input bar and enter to get above values
