• Average: An average is a single value which is used to describe the entire mass of
data. For e.g. A boy got 60 % in S.S.C
• Types of averages:
1. Arithmetic mean (A.M)
2. Median (C.F)
3. Mode
1. Arithmetic mean:
• Simple A.M X = ∑ X X= 1,2,3,4,………………n

∑f + 1 = 10 + 1 = 5.5

Therefore, Median M = 12

When there are two or more values with greatest frequency, mode is said
to be ill – defined, such a series is also known as bi-modal or multi-modal.
E.g. 23, 25, 27, 23, 32, 25, 64, 27
Here the mode is 23, 25 & 27 since these three numbers repeated more
but same as 2 times.
