How to solve median and mode

1 Answer

6 votes
Hello!

To find the median you find the number in the middle

You can do this by taking at number from each end till you are down to one number

EX: if the set was 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

You would do

2, 3, 4

3

The median is 3

To find the mode you look for the number that appears the most

EX: if the data was 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

The mode would be 1 since it is the number that appears the most

Hope this helps!
