This 4-minute video lesson explains the mean, median, and mode. [Statistics playlist: Lesson 1 of 85]

Khan Academy learning modules include a Community space where users can ask questions and seek help from community members. Educators should consult with their Technology administrators to determine the use of Khan Academy learning modules in their classroom. Please review materials from external sites before sharing with students.

Order a set of data and understand the measures needed for a box-and-whisker plot.

A free CK-12 account is required to view all materials.

Download these free worksheets to sharpen your skills with statistics and probability. Sheets focus on collecting and organizing data, measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode, and range), and probability.

Have you ever wondered what the difference is with mean, median, and mode? Here are some excerises that will help you understand what each is.

This resource is the beginning of a series of pages that demonstrates the diffference between the mean and median of a group of numbers. Uses bar graphs to display the data.

Find a quick, concise explanation of a mode. An example is given and clearly explained. Mean and median are also explained.

The median of a data set is the number that is the middle value of the set. Watch this tutorial to learn how to find the median even if there are two middle values. [3:52]

Students collect a large set of data (approximately 60 sets) of individual student’s water use and learn how to use spreadsheets to graph the data and find mean, median, mode, and range. They compared their findings to the national average of water use per person per day and use it to evaluate how much water a municipality would need in the event of a recovery from a water shutdown. This analysis activity introduces students to the concept of central tendencies and how to use spreadsheets to find them.

En este módulo, los estudiantes reconectan y profundizan su comprensión de las estadísticas y los conceptos de probabilidad introducidos por primera vez en los grados 6, 7 y 8. Los estudiantes desarrollan un conjunto de herramientas para comprender e interpretar la variabilidad en los datos, y comienzan a tomar decisiones más informadas de los datos . Trabajan con distribuciones de datos de varias formas, centros y diferenciales. Los estudiantes se basan en su experiencia con datos cuantitativos bivariados del grado 8. Este módulo prepara el escenario para un trabajo más extenso con muestreo e inferencia en calificaciones posteriores.

English Description:
In this module, students reconnect with and deepen their understanding of statistics and probability concepts first introduced in Grades 6, 7, and 8. Students develop a set of tools for understanding and interpreting variability in data, and begin to make more informed decisions from data. They work with data distributions of various shapes, centers, and spreads. Students build on their experience with bivariate quantitative data from Grade 8. This module sets the stage for more extensive work with sampling and inference in later grades.
