B. Developmental Activities
1. Review
Before we start to our new
lesson let us have first a review
regarding our previous lesson
about Graphical Representations
of Frequency Distributions
What is a graph?
Graphs are useful for conveying
information very quickly.
Thank you! What forms can be used
for the summaries of data?
Tabular, graphical and numerical
forms.
Very Good! What are the most
common graphical methods?
Line graphs, time series, line charts,
histograms, frequency polygons, pie
charts, pictograms, and logarithmic
graphs.
Very good! It seems that you
understand our previous lesson
about Graphical Representations of
Frequency Distributions
C. Motivation
Let’s have an activity. I’ll group you
into three. I have a set of popsicle
sticks with different colors. Each
group will separate the popsicle
sticks according to color. After that,
write the number of popsicle sticks
with the same color.
Do you understand?
Yes, sir.
You have three minutes to finish
the activity. (The students will do
the activity
(The students will do the activity).
Red popsicle sticks – 5 pieces
Yellow popsicle sticks –15 pieces
Blue popsicle sticks – 10 pieces
Let us examine your work.
Now, write down the numbers from
1 to 30.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13,
14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23,
24 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30.
Let us use these numbers for our
lesson today.
D. Presentation
Our lesson today class is
“Measures of Central Tendency”.
Now, let us start our discussion but
before that, let us read our objective
first. Read the objectives class.
At the end of the lesson, the
students will be able to:
a. demonstrates understanding of key
concepts,uses and importance of
statistics,data collection/gathering and
the different forms of data
representation, measures of central
tendency, measures of variability and
probability;
b. collect data systematically and
compute accurately measures of
central tendency and variability and
apply these appropriately in data
analysis and interpretation in different
fields;
c. calculates the measures of central
tendency of ungrouped data.
Add those numbers. What is the
sum?
465, ma’am.
After that, divide the sum by 30
since that is the total number. What
is the quotient?
15.5, sir.
Very good. 15.5 is called the mean
of the ungrouped data.
What do you think is the meaning
of the mean of the ungrouped data?
Mean is the average.
Are there other answers?
Mean is the sum of all the numbers
divided by the total number.
Correct. Based from what we did,
we can make the formula in finding
the mean.
The formula is:
�1 + �2 + . . . + ��
�=
�
� is the symbol for mean,�1 to ��
represents the numbers added and
n is the symbol for the total
numbers of data.
Let us have an example.
What is the mean of the numbers
12, 15, 16, 12, 15, 18, 18, 20, 12
and 18?
Who can solve for the mean of the
data?
(The students will answer.)
The mean is 15.6.
Correct. Let’s have another
example.
What is the mean of the following
scores: 15, 19, 19, 18, 17, 13, 12,
10, 18, 20?
Solve for the mean of the data.
The mean is 16.1.
Very good
Now, let’s take a look at this set of
numbers.
4, 8, 9, 6, 5, 10, 15, 19, 24, 23, 14
What have you observed in this set
of numbers? The lowest number is 4.
Are there other answers?
The highest number is 24.
They are not arranged properly.
Correct. Let us arrange the
numbers in ascending order.
4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 14, 15, 19, 23, 24
Now that the numbers are arranged
properly, what do you think is the
middle number of the set?
(The students will answer.)
In a set of data, there is a middle
value. We call it the median.
If the total number of data is odd,
we can use this formula:
� = (N+1)/2
� is the median and n is the total
number of data.
The answer from this formula is not
exactly the median but the location
of the median in the data.
Let us solve the median in our
example. x = (11 +1)/2
x=6
6th value = 10
What is the median?
The median is 10
Nice. Let us have another example:
6, 9, 12, 13, 2, 4, 9, 10, 19, 21, 29,
12 Let us arrange the numbers in
ascending order. 2, 4, 6, 9, 9, 10, 12, 12, 13, 19, 21, 29
What is the total number of data?
The total number is 12.
Exactly. If the total number is even,
there are 2 middle numbers. We
can use this formula:
x = [(n/2) + (n/2 + 1)] / 2
The formula will only tell the location
of the two middle numbers in the
set. Let us identify the 2 middle
numbers.
x = [(12/2) + (12/2 + 1)] /2
x = (6 + 7) / 2
x = 6.5th value.
What are the middle numbers in
the set? The numbers are 10 and 12.
To identify the median, we have to
get the average of the two numbers.
What is the median?
x = (10 + 12)/2
x = 11
The median is 11.
Very good. Let’s examine the this
set of data. 2, 5, 5, 6, 8, 9
What have you observed in this set
of data?
The lowest value is 2. The highest
value is 9. 5 appeared twice in the set.
Exactly. We can say that 5 is called
the mode. Based from this, what is
the meaning of mode?
The mode is the number that appears
twice or more in a set of data.
Correct. The mode is the most
frequently occurring score in the
ungrouped data.
There is no formula in finding the
mode in an ungrouped data. We
just have to look for the numbers
who appear twice or more in the
data.
Let us have another example.
4, 7, 8, 9, 11, 13, 15, 19, 2, 11, 11
The numbers are not arranged
properly. Remember that we have
to arrange the numbers in
ascending order when we are
finding the mean, median and
mode.
Arrange the numbers in ascending
order. 2, 4, 7, 8, 9, 11, 11, 11, 13, 15, 19
What is the mode in the set of data?
The mode is 11.
Correct. 11 is called unimodal since
there is only one mode in the data.
When there are two modes, they
are called bimodal. When there are
more than two modes, we call them
multimodal.
Let’s examine the last set of
ungrouped data.
12, 29, 35, 36, 45, 50, 53, 55, 62,
73, 80
Is there a mode in the set of data?
None ma’am.
In an ungrouped data, we can have
no modes or more than one mode
E. Application
Let us have a group activity.
I will group you into two. Choose
your leaders. Before we begin, let
us recall our guidelines in doing a
group activity.
What are those?
Read the directions.
Cooperate with your classmates.
Work silently.
That’s great. I will give each group
an activity card with a problem.
Show your solutions and answer on
a manila paper. After that, choose a
representative to discuss your
answers.
Do you understand?
Yes ma’am.
You have 5 minutes to finish this
activity.
(The students will do the activity.)
Group 1: Examine the following
numbers.
12, 11, 14, 15, 18, 19, 21, 24, 11,
13, 30
1. Arrange the numbers in
ascending order.
11, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 18, 19, 21, 24,
30
2. Find the mean, median and
mode.
Mean = 17.09
Median = 15
Mode = 11
Group 2: Examine the following
numbers.
23, 11, 24, 24, 24, 25, 21, 19, 20,
18
1. Arrange the numbers in
ascending order.
11, 18, 19, 20, 21, 23, 24, 24, 24, 25
2. Find the mean, median and
mode. Mean = 20.9
Median = 22
Mode = 24
3. Let us take a look at your
answers
F. Generalization
What did each group do to finish
the activity?
We read the directions carefully.
Are there other answers?
We worked silently. We helped each
other.
That’s very nice. Helping each
other is very important. In doing
group activities, we must cooperate
with each other to get the job done.
Our scientists, and frontliners
cooperate with each other to lessen
the effects of COVID-19 in our
country. We must do our part in
combating this disease. We must
cooperate with our government and
frontliners to eliminate COVID-19 in
our country.
Do you understand?
Yes ma’am.
What are the three measures of
central tendency?
They are the mean, median and mode.
Very good. What is the mean?
The mean is the average of the
numbers in the data.
What is the median?
The median is the middle value of the
data.
What is the mode?
The mode is the most frequently
occurring number in a data.
Excellent
