Frequently Asked Questions
What is the mean?
The mean (average) is the sum of all values divided by the count. It's sensitive to outliers - one extreme value can significantly affect it.
What is the median?
The median is the middle value when data is sorted. For even counts, it's the average of the two middle values. It's resistant to outliers.
What is the mode?
The mode is the most frequently occurring value. Data can have no mode (all unique), one mode (unimodal), or multiple modes (multimodal).
When should I use each measure?
Use mean for symmetric data without outliers. Use median for skewed data or with outliers (like income). Use mode for categorical data or finding the most common value.
