Proportion:
A is included in B A
Proportion= A+B

BASIC STATISTICS

Class Limits/Class Boundary Example:

6-10 kg
True lower limit= 5.5 kg
(6-0.5)
True upper limit= 10.5 kg
(10+0.5)

6-10 y/o
True lower limit= 6 y/o
True upper limit= 10.99
Size/Class Interval Size/Class Interval = (upper limit- lower limit)
Midpoint ( + )
Midpoint= 2

Measures of Central Tendency

Mean Median Mode

Formula (Ungrouped data):
= Arrange the observation array
X=
=.
Formula (Grouped data):
X=
f= frequency of each group
x= midpoint of each group
n= total no. of observation
Ungrouped data The value that occurs with the greatest
Steps: frequency in a set of observations
Determine the location
+1
2
Odd- one middlemost
Even- get the average
Formula Grouped data:
( )
2
Median=L +
L= lower limit of median group
c=cumulative frequency of the group
before the median group
f= frequency of median group
i= class interval or size of median group

Measures of Dispersion

Range Variance Standard deviation Coefficient of variation

Range= Xh-Xl SD= 2
h=highest value ()
S2= CV= x 100
l= lowest value 1
()
SD= 1
Ungrouped data: X= observation
-difference between the x= mean
highest and lowest value n= total no. of observation

3 MOD 533

Grouped data:
-True upper limit of the last
class- true lower limit of the
first class

Measure of Position

Percentile Decile Quartile

Formula: Formula: Formula:
100 10 4
Steps:
Rank the sample data from
lowest to highest value
Compute nk/4 to locate
desired quartile
To compute for: 1st quartile,
k=1
2nd quartile k=2
3rd quartile= k=3
If the resulting nk/4 is an
integer, the average of the
nk/4th value and next larger
value in the array is the kth
value
If nk/4 is non-integer take the
next larger as the kth quartile
