Explain Mode, Median, and Range.

SOLUTION:

Mode:

The mode is simply the number which appears most often.

For example in the data set 1,7,5,3,1,3,7,3

1 is repeated 2 times

7 is repeated 2 times

5 is repeated 1 time

3 is repeated 3 times

3 is repeated most number of times

So the mode is 3

Median:

Median is middle number. A median can be calculated by writing all numbers in ascending order and then locating the middle number.

For example consider the numbers {2,5,8,11,16,21,30} .

To calculate median, they are arranged in ascending order 2,5,8,11,16,21,30. 

The middle number  is 11 . 
 So, the median is 11
