The mean of a set of data is the sum of that data divided by the number of items of data.
when there are extreme values in the data
It is one of the key measures of a data set: it shows the value around which the observations are spread out.
Analyzing the mean, median, and range of your experimental data helps establish patters present in the data set. Analyzing the mean will define the quantitative average, analyzing the median will find the number that is center most, and analyzing the range will find the difference between the largest and smallest number in the data set. Good luck!
If the set of data are represented by a letter, then the mean is represented by that letter with a bar across its top.
to find the mean of a set of numbers you have to find the total sum of the data divided by the number of addends in the data.
The mean of a set of data is the sum of that data divided by the number of items of data.
Th find the mean of a data set, you add up all the values in the data set and divide this sum by the number of data values. For example, the mean for the data set 2, 5, 6, and 7 is given as 2 plus 5 plus 6 plus 7, which is 20. You divide this sum by number of values in the data set, which is 4 to get 5 as the mean.
when there are extreme values in the data
First, you add all of the numbers in the set together. Then, you divde the sum by however many numbers there are in the set of data. Your quotient is the average/mean.
It is one of the key measures of a data set: it shows the value around which the observations are spread out.
You can estimate them both.

To answer this question I will use an example. Data set: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50. First find the sum of all the numbers...so 10+20+30+40+50= 150. Then you take the sum (150) and divide it by the number of numbers in the data set. So 150 divided by 5 (the number of numbers in this data set) = 30. 30= the mean of the above data set. Finding the mean is pretty simple. :)
The mean is the average. To find the average, add up the numbers and then divided by the number of numbers there were. Here is an example: Find the mean of this set of data: 1, 4, 6, 9, 4, 6, 2, 8 Add up all the numbers in the set then divide by how many numbers were in that set. When you add up all the things in this data, you get forty. There are eight pieces of data in this set, and so you divide forty by eight. The mean in this example is five!
The mean of a number is the average of a group of numbers. To find the mean you must add up all of the numbers in a data set. Then you take that number and divide it by the number of numbers you have in the data set. This will give you the mean.
