- Find the medianPut the data in order and find the middle value (for example the median of 2, 5, 7, 9 is 6, the mean of 5 and 7).1 past paper question · 3 videos
- Calculate the meanFind the average by adding all the values and dividing by how many there are (for example (4 + 6 + 8) ÷ 3 = 6).4 past paper questions · 3 videos
- Find the mode or modal classFind the value that appears most often, or the group with the highest frequency, for example the mode of 2, 3, 3, 5 is 3.2 past paper questions · 3 videos
- Interpret data and draw conclusionsExplain what data shows in real life, for example compare two classes' results or say whether a graph is misleading.4 videos
- Estimate the mean of grouped dataEstimate the mean of grouped data by multiplying each class midpoint by its frequency, adding, and dividing by the total frequency.2 past paper questions · 4 videos
- Find the median or quartile intervalFind which class interval holds the median or a quartile in grouped data, for example the 20th value of 40 lies in 30 ≤ x < 40.3 past paper questions · 3 videos
