Mother Knows Best

By: Carmen G. Advincula
The worldwide pandemic, COVID-19, brings anxiety and fear to the millions of
Filipinos. Many Filipino workers are forced to stop working and experience the ‘NO
WORK, NO PAY’ scheme. In some areas, business establishments are close due to
the Enhanced Community Quarantine. The effect of the COVID- 19 threat pushes the
government to provide financial assistance to individuals who belong to the displaced
workers and disadvantaged sectors of the community.
Mrs. Gomez, a solo parent, with three children, was one among these
individuals who received financial assistance from the government amounting to five
thousand pesos. She spent 40% of the money for their daily needs and kept the
remaining amount for future use. She planned to make something beneficial out of the
assistance given because she knew that there is no definite time when will the
pandemic end. Besides, there is no assurance that the government will continue to
4
provide cash assistance. She surveys her neighborhood as to what businesses would
be able to put up and be patronized by people of all ages.
Considering the location, the supply, and demand, she decided to have a Fruit
Shake Stall. To know whether she would gain or not in her small business, she
recorded her sales through to the number of glasses sold for the first week of her
business. She labeled the glasses with the corresponding prices: Small – Php 20.00,
Medium- Php 25.00, and Large- Php 30.00.
Fruit Shake Sold Per Day
Sizes Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 5 Day 6 Day 7
Small (S) 8 10 9 11 10 8 5
Medium (M) 10 9 12 9 12 10 7
Large (L) 5 4 4 6 5 3 3
Every day, before going to sleep, she counts first her money. The result is quite
positive. Her worries are somehow lessened because she can provide her family with
the basic needs whatever might happen. Mrs. Gomez thinks that everyone must save
for the future.

A well-known philanthropist and businessman in Cajidiocan visited Cajidiocan

National High School. He wanted to help the school in promoting quality education
amidst a crisis. The principal cited the condition of the educational system in this
challenging time. The school opted to implement the online delivery mode of learning,
but she was worried since a number of students have no internet access nor own
personal mobile phones.
The philanthropist advised the principal to get the total number of students
without gadget so he could present this to his benefactors. He gave his hundred
percent assurance to support the online learning by giving a free mobile phone to
every student who does not have it. This timely support provided relief to the school
administration that education in this crucial time will continue. The principal called for
a faculty meeting to discuss and plan ways to get the needed information. They agreed
to send a questionnaire to every student with the support and assistance of barangay
officials of every barangay.

Heart of a Teacher
It was getting late yet I could not sleep. I could still see the face of Cassy who
came late for her first-period class. Among my students in Math, she caught my
attention. Every time I gave them a test, she would ask her seatmate for a piece of
paper and borrow a ballpen at the same time. During breaks, she would just let it pass
without having snacks. Her actions bothered me a lot so it drove me to know the
reasons behind.
The next day, I entered and faced my class with a bright smile to bring a positive
atmosphere in the classroom. Since our lesson was about organizing data in a
frequency distribution table, I decided to start the lesson by gathering information
about their daily allowance excluding their fare. This, somehow, helped me know
something about Cassy’s situation. I started calling them one by one and this is the
result;
20 30 50 15 20 15 50 50 40 15
30 50 50 30 15 20 20 35 50 20
10 15 20 40 15 20 30 50 15 25
14
Upon getting the information, I learned the sacrifices of Cassy just to be in
school. She lived in a remote area. Thought of ways to help her lingered in my mind.
However, I decided not to be emotionally distracted so I continued my lesson. I
presented the data in a frequency distribution table.
Daily Allowance of Grade 7 Helen

I had a wonderful discussion with my students. I did not want to ruin the moment
so I left the class with another bright smile, looking forward that the plan I had in my
mind would come into reality. This is the essence of being a teacher, having a heart
for the learners.

The Presenters
By: Jimson V. Serrano
A team of aspiring
researchers was gathered to
collect data in a small
community of Sibuyan Island.
The researchers were
oriented that the data will be
used as the basis for
providing apposite livelihood
programs for the community.
They were given ample time
to collect all the data needed.
After a week, the data gathered were consolidated, organized, and tallied as to
age, sex, family size, one year estimated monthly family income, livelihood, and
geographic location. The team was then challenged to present their data appropriately.
They searched the internet on the proper ways to present their data and found out that
the graph is the most powerful tool to do the job.
The members of the team were tasked to have respective parts in the
presentation. The first member was tasked to present the age and sex of the
respondents and decided to use a bar graph to show the range of ages and a pie chart
to show sex percentage composition. The second member used a line graph to show
the trend of estimated monthly family income for a year. The third member used
histograms to show livelihood frequency per age class and scattered dots on a
geographic map to show the locations of their respondents. The last member used an
ogive to show the cumulative frequency of the average monthly income class of each
respondent. The team then prepared, practiced, and rehearsed their presentation
along with their documentation. They used clip arts and animations to make their
presentation appealing and colorful. They also prepared props and agreed to wear
business attire on the presentation proper.

Triplet’s ECQ Challenge

It was the 10th day of the government imposed Enhanced Community

Quarantine (ECQ) due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Everyone stays at home, only
medical personnel, police officers, some government officials, armed forces, and
barangay tanods are allowed outside guarding the frontlines.
The ECQ caused extreme boredom to the triplets, Genesis, Commi, and Quary.
To lessen the boredom, their mother gave them a challenge. She let them gather all
their toy robots then tasked them to describe the heights of their robots. Genesis
instantly stepped forward and arranged all the 15 robots according to height. He then
picked the middlemost robot and measured its height. The robot measures 14 inches.
Commi took his turn and grouped the robots of the same height. He then measured
one of the robots on the group with the greatest number of robots and it measures 12
inches. Quarry was hesitant in his turn. Without any idea on how to start, he just started
measuring each robot’s height and recorded all his measurements. He summed it all
and got a total of 210 inches. He was about to turn in his answer but he backed off.
His answer was too far from the answers of his two brothers. After a while, he
confidently answered 14 inches. The triplets were confused and curious as to why
their answers vary. Their mother interfered when she sensed the confusion. She
clarified that all their answers were correct and their methods were all accurate.
The triplets demonstrated the most essential tool in Statistics. Genesis, Commi,
and Quary demonstrated median, mode, and mean respectively. Genesis was lucky
that they have an odd number of robots. If all the toy robots differ in height, Commi
might not have any answer. Quary executed arithmetic agility, he did not stop in just
one measurement yet performed a series of mathematical operations. The three are
different however, in Statistics, those are simply called measures of central tendency.
20
Directions: Read each question carefully and choose the letter corresponding to the
correct answer.
1. Which of the following is NOT considered frontlines during the ECQ?

1. How did the mother minimize the boredom of the triplets during the ECQ?
A. She let them prepare a song for the frontliners.
B. She let them do an activity related to Statistics.
C. She let them answer an online Statistics Quiz.
D. She let them play with their toy robots at home.
2. How can Genesis get an answer if the total numbers of toy robots were even
number?
A. Choose the measurement of either middlemost robots.
B. Choose a higher measurement of the middlemost robots.
C. Get the mean of the height of the middlemost robots.
D. Get the difference of the height of the middlemost robots.

THE NITO WEAVER

Kapid is a Nito weaver and a

native of Sibuyan Island, Romblon.
Weaving is his primary source of
income and also to most of the
natives of the Island. Their finished
product is sold to various traders
which then sell the products in the
capital of the Philippines as a
novelty or functional items.
Nito plate is one of the fast-

moving lines of product Kapid has.
He has five sizes of plates; PM(Pinakamaisut), M(Maisut), G(Gitna),
MB(Mabahuybahuy), and PB(Pinakamabahuy) when arranged from smallest to
biggest. He makes 25 pieces of each sizes a day to cope with the unrelenting demand.
He is very happy with the blessings he receives despite being just a weaver. With the
earning he makes; he is able to support his family and send his six children to school.
The celebration was cut short when he realized he cannot meet all the orders
regardless of having lots of stock in his kamalig. To solve the problem, he tried to count
the plates in his kamalig but failed due to the volume of stocks. He then turned to his
monthly sales record and found out that he was able to sell monthly average of 300
pieces PM, 750 pieces M, 700 pieces G, 750 pieces MB and 200 pieces PB, having
M and MB as the most commonly sold plate sizes. He also figured out that the
middlemost size being sold is size G knowing that the average monthly total of items
sold is 2700 pieces.
Kapid was enlightened by his analysis. He figured out that to prevent over
stocking, he should not continue producing the way he did. He concluded to produce
more of sizes M, MB and G since they are the most marketable sizes.

A Wonder of Mathematics
Mathematics extends its might in many fields like Astronomy, Physics,

Chemistry, Biology, Engineering, Architecture, Medicine, Business, Security,
Information Technology, and many more. Its power appears in different forms but still
with an emblem of itself. It even shows its capacity in sociological and scientific
research in the form of Statistics which open windows for innovation and development.
A wonder of Mathematics is with Statistics. Being the branch of Mathematics

that covers collecting, organizing, presenting, analyzing, and interpreting masses of
data, it is heavily used in sociological and scientific research wherein it provides any
study with the firm a basis and foundation. If an analysis is focused on the individual
significance or small quantities of data, a part of Statistics called ungrouped data
stands. Otherwise, if the focus is on class or interval set, grouped data holds.
Ungrouped and grouped data is primarily handled by the measure of central

tendency in statistics. It is called grouped data with its basis on the frequency of data
in a given class or interval. Grouped data mean is calculated as the sum of the
products of the midpoint of the class interval and respective frequency then divided by
the total frequency. Grouped data mode based its calculation on the modal class. The
modal class is the class with the highest tallied data. Grouped data median bases
calculation in the midpoint of its data called the median class.
A report of the Department of Health and World Health Organization on

Philippines Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) Situation Report 29 shows the age
distribution of confirmed COVID-19 cases. Given this distribution, the modal class is
the age range 30-39 years old while the median class is 40-49 years old.
Grouped data mean, median, and mode are figured that are used to represent
masses of data. Imagine having hundreds or even thousands of data entries
represented by a single value. All of these are made possible by strictly following a
series of steps; tallying the frequencies, completing a table, identifying values, and
executing a specific formula.
26
Directions: Read each question carefully and choose the letter corresponding to the
correct answer.
1. Wonder is equally replaceable with which word?

are words with _____________ meaning.
A. Opposite B. Contrasting C. Parallel D. Diverging
1. How is the power of Mathematics described?

A. It shows its strength in many fields
B. It showcases it influence in sociological research
C. She lets them answer an online Statistics Quiz.
D. All of the above
2. How does Mathematics show wonder with Statistics in terms of Measure of

Central Tendency?
A. Statistics can represent masses of data into a single figure
B. Statistics has the capability to group or ungroup masses of data
C. Statistics rely on data frequency to represent masses of data
D. Statistics provides the opportunity for innovation and development
3. Which of the following statistical tools bases its logic with the mere arithmetic
calculation?
A. Grouped data mean C. Grouped data mode
B. Grouped data median D. None of the above
27
4. Arrange the following into proper order of solving grouped data mean
i. Add the products of class frequency and the midpoint of the class
ii. Tally the data into a frequency table
iii. Multiply class frequency with the midpoint of the class
iv. Divide the sum of the products of class frequency and midpoint of
the class
A. i, iv, iii, ii B. ii, i, iii, iv C. ii, iii, i, iv D. iii, ii, i, iv
5. Unlike the measure of central tendency of ungrouped data that has simple
formula and steps, measure of the central tendency for grouped data has
intricate formula and steps. What is best recommended to a friend having
difficulty in calculating mean, median, and mode of grouped data?
A. Use Statistics’ Calculator to concisely calculate and properly substitute
values in solving the Measure of Central Tendency for grouped data.
B. Strictly follow the steps and carefully substitute values to the formula of
solving the Measure of Central Tendency for grouped data.
C. Search other ways on how to solve and calculate the Measure of Central
Tendency for grouped data.
D. Simplify the steps and formula in solving and calculating the Measure of
Central Tendency for grouped data.

“Well, you know I’m just a little worried about what your parents would say when
they see your phone. I’m sure they would get cross.” Said Dale.
“Of course, they would mind, but I don’t care. It would be the only thing I could
call mine when I had it. Unlike you, Dale. You can get everything you wanted being
the youngest son of both professional surgeons. Not only that, but you have also four

“I cannot follow her.” Dale thought “that’s being selfish. How could she not think
of her family right now? Her parents were just depending on a little earning they get
as vendors to feed her 4 siblings. Hadn’t she thought of just giving them money to her
parents to buy medicines for her three asthmatic younger brothers, 11 years old, 10
29
years old, and 9 years old or she could have kept on saving to send her 8- year-old
sister to school? How she could see all these things?” Dale still deep in thought.
“Hey! What’s up with you? You’re so quiet. What are you thinking of?” Yana
asked tapping Dale’s shoulder.

Miss Roa
By: Davy M. Gonzales
All of the Grade 7 students were looking at Miss Roa’s Science exam. Some
students were smiling at the sight of it while others felt the pressure running their veins
because Science was their weakness and the thought of Miss Roa seemed to paralyze
their entire body.
Miss Roa was a perfectionist teacher and Science was her forte. She was the
kind of teacher who arrived at school an hour ahead of schedule and who left the
school with the street lights already turned on. The Science Class adored her; while,
the Star Class was divided about her - some admired her and some abhorred her. But
this didn’t at all affect Miss Roa, whose ultimate goal in life as a teacher was to
squeeze every student up to its very last drop.
The examination days were finally over. Miss Roa was at her table checking
the tests. After checking, she made a frequency distribution of the Science Class and
the Star Class test scores because she wanted to determine whether her students
mastered the learning competencies, so she could think of another teaching strategies
for possible intervention or some enrichment activities.
Scores of Grade 7 – Science Scores of Grade 7 – Star Class

Class Students in the 1st Students in the 1st Grading Test
Grading Test in Science in Science
Score Frequency (f) Score Frequency (f)
46-50 1 46-50 6
41-45 11 41-45 4
36-40 10 36-40 5
31-35 5 31-35 4
26-30 2 26-30 5
21-25 1 21-25 5
32
Miss Roa scrutinized the table and was very satisfied with the Science Class
performance. The class was homogeneous or made up of the same level of ability.
On the other hand, the Star Class showed otherwise. She figured out that the class
was heterogeneous or made up of a different level of ability. She expected them to be
at the same level. Upon realizing this, she promptly modified her teaching strategies
to address the learning issues of the Star Class students.
On Miss Roa’s first meeting with the Star Class students for the second quarter,
she ramified the class into six groups, each of which had above-average students.
She also encouraged the class to do peer teaching to cultivate individualized and
interactive learning. She told her students that they would be doing this until the third
quarter. Meanwhile, Miss Roa hoped for a positive outcome.
The second quarter finally came. And their Miss Roa was sitting again at her
table checking the exams. As usual, Science Class test scores brought smiles at her
face. On the other hand, the Star Class test papers were on her table waiting to be
checked.

B. Students performed better that Special Science Class.
C. The majority of students had high scores leading to higher performance of
the students
D. Scores were more compact which means students have at least equal
performance.
34
6. Based on the table, do you think the Star class has more above average
students than the Science Class?
A. Yes, because the star class performed better than the science class.
B. Yes, there are more students score in the score group of 46-50.
C. No, because the special science class performed better.

The “Talking Table”

By: Lea L. Gumandoy
It’s been a tiring day for a math teacher like me handling six sections. Lying on
a sofa bed while listening to the news in the television, I heard my daughters talking
about a Korean drama they had watched.
“Oh, that’s great you are

drawing conclusions; it may help you
improve your comprehension skills”,
I interrupted.
Suddenly, my daughter Dea

remembered the coming Civil
Service Career (CSC) exam.
“Mother, I’m worried about the
coming CSC exam because it’s more
on Math, “Dea said.
“Nothing to worry my dear, I

will haphazardly discuss to you, I
replied.
“In the reviewer, there were several items I hardly understand how to connect
the data presented in graphs, maps and tables. The graph fluctuated dramatically then
increased slightly and dropped markedly,” Dea observed consciously. Bea, my other
daughter, looking at the reviewer noticed that problem number 24 and 25 given a table
with values of mean and standard deviation in the reviewer said, “Which section
performed best during the year?
”Which section do you think is easier to handle?”
This is it, the performance of the three sections is compared in terms of mean
(X) and standard deviation (SD) of students’ scores in the achievement test.
36
A B C
X 42.5 41.65 44.9
SD 3.7 3.15 2.9
How do you use the data in answering the questions?“ Ahaha!, Bea teasingly
smiled to her sister Dea.
“Peanuts lang yan. “Each set of Data Tells A Story!”
The Mean: “The higher the mean, the better the performance”
The Standard Deviation:” A smaller SD often indicates more consistency and

more reliability”
The Graph: take note of its elements:
Title – tells what the graph is about
Labels – tell what kinds of facts are listed
“Reading a graph with numbers can be much easier than reading a lengthy
description.”
“Huh, is that so … now I know, Dea uttered.
I reminded them of the saying: “If others can, why can’t I “.
God bless to your upcoming Civil Service Examination girl!
Directions: Give the meaning of each of the underlined word.
1. Haphazard discussed to you.

A. Randomly B. Systematically C. Orderly D. Organized
2. The graph fluctuated dramatically.

A. Changed B. Fixed C. Firm D. Stable
3. The graph dropped markedly.

A. slightly B. openly C. noticeably D. slowly
37
Directions: Carefully read and understand each question and choose the letter of the
best answer.
1. How did Dea describe a graph?

A. steady B. decreasing C. increasing D. fluctuating
2. What do you think is the occupation of the two siblings’ mother?

A. Housekeeper C. Supervisor
B. Teacher D. School principal
3. What bothers Dea?

A. The graph C. The Civil service exam
B. The talking table D. Her mother
4. How did Dea use the data of Mean(X) and SD in answering the question,
“Which section do you think is easier to handle?”
A. C, because of mean (X) C. C, because of SD
B. A, because of SD D. B, because it’s at the middle
5. Do you think Dea was enlightened on how to read a graph?

description.
B. No, because the graph fluctuated dramatically, increased slightly, then
dropped markedly.
C. No, because she hardly understood the data presented in graphs, maps,
and table.
D. Yes, because her sister Bea reviewed her on how to read graph and table.

The Tendency to be Better

By: Lea L. Gumandoy
It was a boring day since the ECQ was extended because of the increasing
number of infected persons due to COVID -19. After doing all errands for the day, the
three cousins - Zion, Sky, and Kurt were talking about DepEd Commons, the online
platform containing learning resources for the benefit of students, parents, and
teachers provided by the Philippines’ education department as a response to the
pandemic.
“Hello Sky. What are you thinking?” asked Kurt, the oldest among the three. “I
am thinking, why do we need to learn multiple measures of central tendency,” Sky
answered.
Since Sky and Zion are classmates, they both question why they have to study
Mean, Median, and Mode.
“Kuya Kurt, can you help us understand further these ideas?” Zion said.
“Sure! You will discover how these ideas will help you later in life,” said Kurt.
“Well, I have here a typical question for both of you,” Kurt added.
39
“Which best describes the number of times a “Popular Song” was played on the
radio per day?”
Given the following information: Sunday 10, Monday 13, Tuesday 13, Wednesday 11,
Thursday 15, Friday 3 and Saturday 9.
“I calculated that the Median is 11; the Mean is 10.6; and the Mode is 13,” Kurt
explained. “So, how should the question be answered? Is there an answer?”, asked
Zion.
“I guess it’s the Mode since I observed that 13 appeared twice in the list. That’s
simply my observation but I’m not sure how it’s really arrived at,” Sky interrupted.
“Okay, I will give you another statistical data for you to analyze and interpret. Let’s say
we are comparing the average scores of two basketball players, Scottie Thompson
and James Yap. Let’s look at these numbers altogether,” Kurt said.
Thompson Yap
Mean 12 12
Median 14 12
Mode 0 12
“When comparing Means, Thompson and Yap have the same Mean since their
average is 12 points per game. If we look at their Median scores, Thompson seems to
be the better player – his median is 14 compared to Yap’s which is 12. If we consider
their Modes, Thompson with a score of
0 and Yap with 12, it appeared that
Yap’s Mode is better than
Thompson’s,” Kurt explained.
“Then, who’s better?” asked

Zion.
“The point is that who is better

between the two basketball stars. That
depends not only on the data and their
meaning, but on how you will use the
result,” said Kurt. Source: philstar.com Source: mb.com.ph
The problem was not asked to know the right or wrong answer in mind, but
rather to see if a student can justify his/her choice. This type of question can be used
to test the student’s understanding of the concepts rather than just his/her ability to
give values.
