MEASURES OF CENTRAL TENDENCIES

Measures of central tendency are a key way to discuss and communicate with graphs. The term central tendency refers to the middle, or typical, value of a set of data, which is most commonly measured by using the three m’s: mean, median, and mode. The mean, median, and mode are known as the measures of central tendency. We shall learn about mean in this topic.
