Measures of Central Tendency: Outlier

Outlier- a value that is much larger or smaller then the other data value
           - the set may have more then 1 outleir or 0 outlier
          Outlier of 1, 67, 68, 65, 100 are 1 and 100

Measures of Central Tendency: Range

Range- the positive difference between the largest and smallest values in a data set
          Range of 4, 8, 5, 6, 9, 1, 3, 5, 8, 6 is 8
1, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 8, 8,
9-1=8
         Range of 7, 8, 4, 3, 9, 4, 6, 13, 17, 4, 12 is 14
3, 4, 4, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, 17
17-3=14

Measures of Central Tendency: Mean

Mean- a measure of central tendency
        - the sum of a set of values divided by the number of values in the set
Mean of 6, 4, 8 is 6
Add up all the numbers and divide the result by how many numbers there are
6+4+8=18
13÷3=6
There for the mean is 6
Mean of 3, 4, 2, 1, 5, 3 is 3
3+4+2+1+5+3=18
18÷6=3

Measures of Central Tendency: Mode

Mode- the most frequently occurring number in a set of data
Mode and Most both have four letters
Mode of 3, 5, 7, 7, 9 is 7
Mode of 2, 2, 4, 6, 6, 8, 71 is 2 and six
Mode of 1, 2, 3, 5 is no mode
Mode of 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3 is no mode
Mode of 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4 is 1, 2 , and 3

Measures of Central Tendency: Median

Median- the middle number in a set of data after the data have been arranged
eg. Median of 2, 5, 6, 8, 9 is 6
     Median of 1, 3, 6, 8, 9, 10 is 7
     Median of 6, 9, 13, 7, 8, 11 is 8 1/2

Measures of Central Tendency

- a value that represents the center of a data set can be the mean, median, or mode
- data set is a group of numbers that you must arrange in order from least to greatest
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 5, 4, 5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 5, 34, 3
2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 34

Multiples

The product of any given number and natural number like 1,2,3...
eg. Some multiples of 3 are: 3,6,9,12,15,18...
list the 1st 5 multiples of each number.
2-2,4,6,8,10
3- 3,6,9,12,15
4- 4,8,12,16,20
5-5,10,15,20,25
8-8,16,24,32,40
12- 12,24,36,48,60
Multiples are just like multiplying.

How to do number 16 and 17 on Number of the day

Number 17- make a two digit number using the digit in ones place
first and the tens place second.
eg. 43 from December 7
Number: 9834.765
Then find from the prime factors
43-1, 43
so 43 is the only prime factor
1 is not prime.

Number 16- Only look at the whole number











Then go through the divisibility rules.

Denominator and Numarator

Denominator- the bottom number of a fraction
and tells us how many equal parts the whole is divided into.
eg.















Numerator- is the top number of a fraction and tells us how many parts
of the whole we have are dealing with.
eg.

Subtracting Fraction with like Denominator

2/3-1/3=1/3









3/4-1/4=2/4 or 1/2
