Prelim Seatwork: Statistics Calculations

This document is a prelim seatwork from the University of Cebu - Banilad Campus College of Computer Studies. It contains instructions for two questions asking the student to calculate the mean, median, and mode of two different data sets containing numerical values. For the first question, the student provides the data set and begins to show their work to solve for the statistics. For the second question, the student is asked to construct a grouped frequency distribution table for a new data set representing employee salaries. They acknowledge the number of classes and begin to set up the table but do not provide the final calculations or solutions. The document cautions the student to think carefully and avoid mistakes by not writing too much if they are unsure.

1. Given the following set of values:


3, 9, 17, 14, 11, 16, 2, 12

Calculate the following:


a. Mean
b. Median
c. Mode

Solution:

H = 17 L = 2
Range = 17 – 2 = 15
Number of Class = 5
Class width = 15/5 = 3

Class Limits Boundaries Tally F Cf


2-5 1.5-5.5 || 2 2
6-9 5.5-9.5 | 1 3
10-13 9.5-13.5 || 2 5
14-17 13.5-17.5 ||| 3 8

2 as the starting point.

2. The following data represents the salaries (Php) of 35 randomly selected employees in the various
industries. Construct the grouped frequency distribution table for this dataset.

450 470 370 480 400 230 235


250 410 335 390 280 250 315
440 300 320 180 330 440 260
290 355 270 420 380 200 435
370 160 430 255 295 300 380

Note: We arbitrarily pick 7 classes.

Calculate the following:


a. Mean
b. Median
c. Mode
Solution:

H=

Proceed with caution: If you are quite sure of yourself, write a lot. If not, consider not writing so
much. The possibility of a mistake grows almost surely as a function of your sureness, but little helps
you if you make one.   
