We have the Average, which is correctly known as the Mean. This is when you add all numbers and divide by the amount of numbers. That works fine when you have a lot of numbers that are of similar values.
However, if you have a number in a set that is much larger than any of the others, it will give an unrealistic value for an average. So for example, if you had 10 numbers and 9 of them were under 25, and one was over 1000, the Mean of that set would not give a realistic value to reflect what you are looking for.
So we have two other methods. One is the Median. This is where you put all the numbers in order of value, and then find the middle value if there is an odd number of values, or if there is an even amount, the value halfway between the two middle numbers. A third method is to get the Mode. This is the number that occurs most often in a set of values.
The arithmetic mean, geometric mean and the harmonic mean are three example of averages.
averages in tests, bills, income, amount of time
That's because averages give us some idea about general tendencies.

A geometric mean gives you the true average of any given data. Geometric averages are one out of three parts of what is known as a Pythagorean mean analysis of data.
The arithmetic mean, geometric mean and the harmonic mean are three example of averages.
Averages three to ten feet.
Mean, Median and Mode. They are three kinds of averages.
The same way you would do averages in regular math; add them all up and divide by the sum of its parts. Ex. if there's three numbers... average := (n1 + n2 + n3) / 3
From the NASA Landsat Image Mosaic of Antarctica, you can read that the ice ". . . averages more than one mile in thickness, but is nearly three miles thick in places."
I honestly don't know how to work out averages on a calculator, but I do know to get a average you need to add up all the numbers and then divide by how many there are .. maybe that's what your looking for. In this example we will say there are three numbers 1,2,3 you add all those numbers up (1,2,3) and then you divide by three since there are three numbers and then that's your average. Example: 1+2+3/3 (One plus two plus three divided by three)
They are averages of different kinds: arithmetic mean, geometric mean, harmonic mean are three commonly used means.
This averages to be 68.33%
Add all the numbers together; divide by the amount of numbers (for example, if you add three numbers, add the sum by 3).
It is called central tendency because it represents the averages. Central tendency has three measurements: # Mean # Mode # Median
With average precipitation of 4.4 inches [111 millimeters], January is the month with the most precipitation. The second highest month is March with 4.3 inches [109 millimeters]. December averages 4.1 inches [103 millimeters]. November averages 3.7 inches [93 millimeters]. February averages 2.9 inches [76 millimeters]. October averages 2.4 inches [62 millimeters]. April averages 2.1 inches [54 millimeters]. May averages 1.7 inches [44 millimeters]. September averages 1.3 inches [33 millimeters]. June averages 0.6 inches [16 millimeters]. August averages 0.2 inches [4 millimeters]. July averages 0.1 inches [3 millimeters].
