📊 Key Concepts

Mean (μ or x̄)

The arithmetic average of all values

μ = Σx / n

Sensitive to outliers

Median

The middle value when data is ordered

Middle value of sorted data

Less affected by outliers

Mode

The most frequently occurring value

Most common value

Useful for categorical data

Measures of Variability

Standard Deviation (σ)

Average distance from the mean

σ = √(Σ(x - μ)² / n)

Same units as original data

Coefficient of Variation

Relative variability measure

CV = (σ / μ) × 100%

Allows comparison across scales
