C. Activities
The grades in Algebra of 11 students are the following.
82, 85, 79, 78, 89, 87, 88, 89, 79, 88 and 79
Solve the following problems.
1. Add all the score of the 11 students and divided it by 11.
2. Arrange the given scores from the lowest to the highest. Find the
middle score.
3. Find the most occurring number.

D. Abstraction

Measures of Central Tendency- a very convenient way of describing a set of scores with
a single number that describes the PERFORMANCE of the group.

Mean - the arithmetic average

- the most frequently used measures of central tendency

Properties of the mean

- the most stable measures of central tendency
- is easily affected by the extreme scores
- very easy to compute
 Median – divides the scores in the distribution into 2 equal parts
- 50% lies below the mean and 50% lies above the mean

Properties of the median

- it is not affected by the extreme scores
- it can be applied in ordinal level

Mode – is occurred the most in the distribution

Classification of Modes
Unimodal – distribution of scores that consists of one mode
Bimodal - distribution of scores that consists of two modes
Trimodal - distribution of scores that consists of three modes

Properties of mode
- Affected by extremes
- Can be easily seen in the data

E. Application

1. Which of the following is not a measure of central tendency?
a. Range

to the overall total.
a. Median
b. Arithmetic mean
c. Weighted mean
