Measure of Central Tendency - Grouped Data

This document provides formulas and examples for calculating measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode) from grouped data. It gives the formulas for calculating the mean, median, and mode. It then works through two examples calculating the mean, median, and mode for sets of grouped data, showing the steps and calculations.
