you find which one is best for example, the mode could be the beat because it shows the most amount of data. just by looking at the mode you can figure out a lot about the survey and the data you have collected.

How do you find the best measure of central tendency when using outliers?

A weighted mean is probably best. Certainly better than a median which throws away information from most of the observations.


How do you find an average from the measures of central tendency?

One of the measures of central tendency IS the average, also known as mean. You can't calculate the average from other measures of central tendency.


What is the importance of Central Tendency?

Central tendency is important in statistics. It allows individuals to find a representative value, to condense data, and to make comparisons.


What is central tendency?

Though mean, median, and mode is central tendency, it is hard to put this into words.For an example:Your average grade in math class is an A. Though, how did you calculate that average? Well, since average means mean, you calculated that average using the method of central tendency, or in this situation, you found the mean.In other words, central tendency is just a method (mean, median and mode) to find the average, middle, and most occurring score or number in a set of data.I hope this helped! ;D~Lovingless


Which is the most stable measure of central tendency?

Stability means that there will be less variation between random samples drawn on the same population. With categorical data, you may not have a choice, the mode is the only measure of central tendency that will be meaningful. With measureable, numerical data, the mean may be the only meaningful measure of central tendency, even though the median may show less variation. Some data may be assumed to have a skewed distribution, such as the price of homes, or incomes. The more stable and meaningful value for skewed distributions is the median, as a few high numbers can have a large impact on the estimate. See related links. You can find more information on central tendency by doing a search on the internet.

How do you find measure of minor arc?

the measure of a minor arc equals the measure of the central angle that intercepts it.


How do you find a mode if 2 numbers appear the same number of times?

There are two modes. The mode is the only measure of central tendency where you can have no mode (no number appears more than another), one mode, or several modes, such as in your case.


How do you find the radius when the arc length IS GIVEN?

You also need the measure of the central angle because arc length/2pi*r=measure of central angle/360.
