Suppose we wanted to sum the first 10 numbers: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 Let’s build a table:

Mean
13
Median The middle value of a set of data Order the data from smallest to largest The median is the middle value When there exists an even number of elements, the median is the average of the two middle values Our previous data: 3, 3, 4, 6, 7 Median = 4
14
Mode The value that appears the most number of times in a set of data Our previous data: 3, 3, 4, 6, 7 Mode = 3
15
Measures of Center
17
Percentile The p th percentile of a set of numbers is a value in the set such that p percent of the numbers are less than or equal to that value. Max = 100 th percentile Min = 0 th percentile Median = 50 th percentile

Quartiles

Five Number Summary 1)Minimum 2)1 st Quartile = Lower Quartile 3)2 nd Quartile = Middle Quartile 4)3 rd Quartile = Upper Quartile 5)Maximum

Box Plot Box-and-Whisker Plot A visual representation of a five-number summary 1)Draw a number line including the minimum and maximum data values 2)Draw a rectangle with opposite sides at the lower and upper quartiles of the data (hinges) 3)In the box, draw a segment parallel to the hinges at the median 4)Draw segments from the midpoints of the hinges to the min and max values (whiskers)
