Can the mean median mode and range all the same number?

Answer 1

They quick answer is YES!

Here is an example.

Before we begin let quickly recap what the we mean by "mean", "median", "mode" and "range":

[MEAN] - The sum of all the values, divided by the total number of values.

[MEDIAN] - The middle value when the data is arranged in numerical order.

[MODE] - The most common value in a data set.

[RANGE] - The difference between the highest and lowest values in the set.

If we had the following numbers 1, 2, 2, 2, 3,

The [MEAN] would be: TWO

= 1+2+2+2+3/5 = 10/5 = (2)

The [MEDIAN] would be: TWO

= 1 2 (2) 2 3 = (2)

The [MODE] would be: TWO

The most common value is (2)

The [RANGE] would be: TWO

range = (highest - lowest) = (3-1) = (2)

Therefore; Mean, Median, Mode and Range = (2)

So the Mean, Median, Mode and Range can all be the same number!
