Measures of Center
Compute the mean and median of numerical data sets, and choose which measure of center better represents a typical value based on the shape of the distribution.
Standards:
6.SP.A.3, 6.SP.B.5, 6.SP.B.5.C, 6.SP.B.5.D
- I can compute the mean of a numerical data set.
- I can compute the median of a numerical data set.
- I can choose whether the mean or the median better describes a typical value in a data set based on its shape.
