Measures of Central Tendency & Dispersion

The document discusses measures of central tendency, specifically the mean, median, and mode, along with their calculations for individual, discrete, and continuous series. It also covers measures of dispersion, including mean deviation, variance, and standard deviation for both ungrouped and grouped data. The relationships between mean, median, and mode are highlighted, providing formulas and steps for determining these statistical measures.

Median: Measures of dispersion Variance of a continuous frequency distribution


Mean Deviation (M.D.) for ungrouped data
(i) Median of an individual series:
Step 1: Arrange the data in ascending or descending order. Variance & Standard deviation:
Step 2: (i) If n is odd, then Relation between Mean, Variance of ungrouped data Standard deviation of a continuous frequency

Median = value of the middle term

distribution
Median = mean of the two middle terms
(ii) Median of a discrete series: 3 Median = Mode + 2 Mean
Step 1: Arrange the values of the variate in ascending or Standard Deviation (S.D.) for ungrouped data: Variance
descending order
Step 2: Prepare a cumulative frequency table
Step 3: Median is the observation whose cumulative frequency is
equal to or just greater than N/2, where N is sum of frequencies. Standard deviation
Variance of a discrete frequency distribution
(iii) Median of a continuous series:
Step 1: Prepare the cumulative frequency table
Step 2: Find the median class, i.e. the class whose cumulative
frequency is equal or just greater than (N/2) Standard Deviation (S.D.) of a discrete frequency
Step 3: The median value is given by the formula distribution

Mode:
The mode is that value in a series of observations which
occurs with greatest frequency. In case of individual series,
the mode is the value which occurs more frequently.
