Averages: Computing Mean, Mode and Median

Use this measure of central tendency instructional activity to have learners find mean, median, mode and range of ten sets of nine numbers. Numbers are presented in a series of lists.

Learners read a variety of word problems and find the mode, median, range, and mode from a given set of data. If calculators are not desirable, provide the class with notebook paper to work out the equations. 

Introduce mean, median, and mode and post these bright posters in your classroom. The posters focus on the vocabulary and highlights the answer choice. Each one is colorful, which will engage and attract your learners. 

Given four sets of data, zombie-loving mathematicians find the mode, range, mean, and median for each set. The sheet is more challenging if calculators are not used; but the data set with large numbers may require a calculator.

This video provides a reasonable explanation for blossoming mathematicians, explaining the difference between average and central tendency, as well as arithmetic mean, median, and mode. Those who haven't grasped these concepts in algebra...

What a find! Here is a instructional activity, designed to meet sixth grade math Common Core standards, that focuses on the calculation of different measures of center for the scores from a penalty shoot-out competition. An independent...

Learners engage in a study of mean, median, mode, and range in order to represent data in tables. They are also exposed to the results of data that is skewed because of the outlier.

In this mean worksheet, students examine given information and determine the mean, mode and median of data.  This one-page worksheet contains 10 problems. Answers are provided.

How many types of average are there? This video describes how to determine the mean, median, and mode of a set of numbers. Each type is worked through using one data set and the instructor shows the procedure for determining each.

For this online math worksheet, find the mean, median, and mode in a variety of sets of data. This excellent resource allows the students to check their answers, and to get "hints" should they run into difficulties. A terrific teaching...
