liv1234 · Answer

Do you know how to find the mode and mean?

jchick · Answer

Mean, median and mode are numbers that represent a whole set of data or information. Mean, median and mode are together called the measures of central tendency. The mean is often called the average.

I have the mode, but i forget what mean is

liv1234 · Answer

The mode in a set of numbers is the number that repeats the most.
The mean is basically what the average is.

liv1234 · Answer

Then with the mean, you add all of the numbers up and divide that number by the amount of numbers you have.

jchick · Answer

Well to find an average you add up the numbers and divide by the amount of numbers you added.

liv1234 · Answer

So, when you add all your numbers up you get 30

No worries, I sometimes get them mixed up as well, but it's all a matter of practice.(:

xmissalycatx · Answer

Think of it this way.. 
Mean = Average (or all numbers added together then divided by how many #'s)

Median = Middle ("MED" or mid)

Mode = "MO"ST
