Topics in Statistics
Mean of Grouped Data
- Three methods to calculate mean: Direct Method, Assumed Mean Method, and Step-deviation Method
- Direct Method: x̄ = Σfᵢxᵢ/Σfᵢ where xᵢ is class mark and fᵢ is frequency
- Class mark = (Upper limit + Lower limit)/2
Mode of Grouped Data
- Mode is the value that appears most frequently in the data
- For grouped data, we find the modal class (class with highest frequency)
- Mode lies within the modal class and is calculated using interpolation
Median of Grouped Data
- Median is the middle value that divides the data into two equal halves
- For grouped data, we need to find the median class using cumulative frequency
- Median class is the class where the n/2th observation lies
Comparison of Mean, Median, and Mode
- Mean is affected by extreme values, median is not affected by extreme values
- Mode represents the most frequent value, useful for categorical data
- Empirical relationship: 3 Median = Mode + 2 Mean (approximately)
