reeBelow are the Formulas used to arrive to the computation used by the StatisticalTool:
1. Mean.
The proponents used the mean to be able to identify the range of interest.The proponents
obtained the Degree of Efficiency by using the formula:Mean ( ) = f (X1 + X2 + ... Xn)nWhere:f =
frequency that a given X was chosen by the respondentsX = represents any of the numerical
ratings 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, representingExcellent, Very Good, Good, Fair, Poor respectively.n = total
