Mean Median Mode and Range


Mean is actually is a average which you can calculate by diving the count of numbers in  set of data to the sum of all the number given in set of data 

 for example data set is { 10 , 13 , 17 , 18 , 12 } 
Sum of all number 10 + 13 + 17 + 18 + 12 = 70
and number of numbers is 5

 Mean = 70 / 5 = 14


Median is actually a middle number if numbers are arrange in a order ascending/ descending
means to find the median first arrange the set of data in a order and then pick a middle number

 example 1 : count of number is odd

  data set is { 10 , 13 , 17 , 18 , 12 }
arranging the set in order { 10, 12, 13, 17, 18 }
median is 13 as it is a middle number

 example 2 : count of number is even 

data set is { 10 , 13 , 17 , 18 , 12 , 14 }
arranging the set in order { 10, 12, 13, 14 ,17, 18 }
now we have two middle numbers so take the average to find the median
median is 13.5

Mode :  It is the value that repeated most often. 

 example1 :    data set is { 10 , 13 , 17 , 18 , 12 , 14 , 17, 15 , 17}
mode is 17 as repeated maximum number of times 

 example2 : data set is { 10 , 13 , 17 , 18 , 12 , 14 }
mode is none as no muber is repeated

 example : data set is { 10 , 10 , 12 , 17 , 15 , 12}

data set is bimodal and modes are 10 and 12

Range : It is difference between largest and smallest number 

example : data set is { 10 , 13 , 17 , 18 , 12 , 14 , 17, 15 , 17}

 Range = 18 - 10 = 8

LCM and HCF problem

Question : There are three numbers such that the product of the first two numbers is 91                  and that of the last two numbers is 221. Find all three numbes and their sum Answer : Suppose numbers are A , B AND C. Also given   A x B  = 91 and B x C = 221 Since the numbers are prime number, they contain only 1 as the common factor. Also, above two products have B in common. So, B = H.C.F. of ( 91 and 221 ) = 13; A  = 91/13 = 7;  C  = 221/13 = 17. Required sum = (7 + 13 + 21 ) = 41. ================================================================= Question : The ratio of two numbers is 3 : 4. The L.C.M. of two numbers is 48.                   Find sum of the number Solution : Let the numbers be 3x and 4x. Then, their L.C.M. = 12x. So, 12x = 48 or x = 4 The numbers are 12 and 16. Hence, required sum = (12 + 16) = 28. ===...

Line of Symmetry This is a lesson on line symmetry for grades 3-4. It contains variety of exercises for the students. symmetry means that one shape becomes exactly like another. The line of symmetry is an imaginary line where you could fold an image and have both halves match exactly i.e.  if you placed a mirror along the symmetry line, you would see the other half of the figure reflected in the mirror. Exercise on line of Symmetry : Note : 1) Equilateral triangle has three line of symmetry while Isosceles triangle has only one line of symmetry.  2) Square has four line of symmetry while rectangle has two line of symmetry. Pl tell how many line of symmetry do  rhombus   and     parallelogram have

LCM and HCF

Factor :   Factor for a given number are all the numbers which divides given number completely i.e. if you divide given number by factor then there will be no remainder. Question Write all the factors of 100 ? Prime Number : are the numbers which divided completely by only itself or one.               example 2 , 3 , 5 so on Question :   Write all the prime number till 100 ? ========================================================= HCF : Highest common factor of two or more number is the largest number that divide all the number completely    Factor of 10 are 1 ,  2  and 5    Factor of 15 are 1 , 3   and 5  so common factor of 10 and 15 are 1 and 5 in  which 5 is largest so HCF = 5 Note : HCF will be always less than the smallest number or equal to the smallest number.            HCF for prime numbers is 1. i.e there is no common factor other tha...
