What does middle value mean?
The median
What is the median of two and one half?
The median of a data set comprising only one value is that value. So the median of 2.5 is 2.5.
Can the median and the mean be the same value?
Yes. In the set (9, 10, 11, 12, 13) 11 is the median and the mean.
Is the mean and median similar?
The Mean is the average of a given set of values. The Median is the value that has the same number of smaller values than the number of higher values, it is in the middle of them. In a symmetrical distribution the Mean is equal to the Median. In an asymmetrical distribution they have different value.
Is the median affected by the mean?
The median is the value which seperates the upper and lower half of a set of numbers. The mean is the average value between two or more numbers. In calculating a set of numbers, specifically a set of averages, the median may indeed be effected by the mean.
What does the term of median mean in math?
The median is the middle value of a list of numbers. In [1,6,34] the median value is 6.
What does mean mean in the term of math?
The median is the middle value of a list of numbers. In [1,6,34] the median value is 6.
How the mean and median about the same value?
5,6,7
Why are mean median and mode considered measures of central tendency?
The mean (average value), the median (middle value), and the mode (most frequently occurring value) are all important values.
What if the median has 6 values how do you work it out?
A median can have only one value.
What is the shape of a distribution when the mean and the median are about the same value?
That would provide some evidence that the distribution is symmetric about the mean (or median).
Can mean and median ever have the same value?
Yes because if the numbers are all the same they can be both mean and median but they do not have to be the same.
What is the median of 1 number only?
Your single number is your only information of the median value of the population, so the median value is the same as your single number. It is also the mode and mean of your sample.
What is the nature of symmetry if median is greater than the mean?
Generally, when the median is greater than the mean it is because the distribution is skewed to the left. This results in outliers or values further below the median than above the median which results in a lower mean value than median value. When a distribution is skewed left, it is generally not very symmetrical or normally distributed.
How does the outlier effect the mean median and mode in a set of data?
There would be a difference to the median. The old number wouldn't be the median but the mode wouldn't change. If the outlier is a high value, it will cause the mean value to shift to the higher side, while a low valued outlier will drop the mean value to a lower number.
In any data set are the median and mean usually very similar in value?
yes they are if you have 0 and 10 the mean is 5 and so is the median. The mean and the median can in fact be the same value. But basically to answer your question, One possible way is that if the values are ascending by 1 in the data set, then the number of values left to the median should be the same as the number of values right to the median. e.g. 6+7+8+9+10 6,7 = 2 terms 9,10 = 2 terms median =8 mode = 8
What is arithmetic median?
It is the number in the middle of the set from least to greatest or greatest to least. If you're having trouble, remember this song: Mean, median, mode.Mean, median, mode. Here's what they are. Here's what they are. The mean is the one that you add then divide. The median is the one in the middle of the line. The mode is the one you see most of the time. Mean, median, mode. Mean, median, mode.
