    Lesson 10 Measures of Variability - Grouped Data High School

    Uploaded by

    Albec Sagrado Ballacar
    This document provides information on measures of variability for grouped data. It defines range, mean deviation, variance and standard deviation. An example is given to demonstrate calculating each measure using test score data grouped into categories. The range is the difference between the highest and lowest group. Mean deviation is the average deviation from the mean. Variance and standard deviation are calculated using formulas that take the sum of the frequency multiplied by the midpoint or squared midpoint. The variance of the example data is 61.03 and the standard deviation is 7.81.

    measures of Variability
    (grouped Data)
    Prepared by: Teacher Rochelle
    Mathematics
    MEASUREs of VARIABILITY
    • A measure of variation is a single value that is used to
    describe the spread of the distribution.
    • Dispersion (or spread) refers to the extent to which the
    data values of a numeric random variable are scattered
    about their central location value.
    • A measure of central tendency alone does not uniquely
    describe a distribution.
    • We have 3 measures of variability namely: Range,
    Mean Deviation, Standard Deviation and Variance.
    RANGE
    FOR
    GROUPED
    DATA
    Range (R)

     The mathematical difference between the highest


    upper boundary (maximum) value and lowest
    lower boundary (minimum) value in a data set.
    R = HVUB – LVLB
    EXAMPLE
    Scores of 30 Grade 10 students in English exam

    Scores f LB UB
    R = HVUB – LVLB
    19 – 24 11 18.5 24.5

    25 – 30 8 24.5 30.5 R = 42.5 – 18.5


    31 – 36 5 30.5 36.5 = 24

    37 – 42 6 36.5 42.5
    Mean Deviation (MD)
    • It measures the average deviation of the scores from arithmetic
    mean.
    • It gives equal weight to the deviation of every score in the
    distribution.
    For Grouped Data

    MD 
     f Xm  x
    n
    where:
    f  mean deviation value
    X m  midpoint of each category
    x  mean value
    n  number of cases
    EXAMPLE
    Scores of 30 Grade 10 students in English exam

    37 – 42 6 39.5 237 10.8 10.8 64.8
    Total 30 861 177.6

     fX m  861  fX m
    n  30 x

     28.7 f X m  x  177.6
    EXAMPLE
    Scores of 30 Grade 10 students in English exam

    MD 
     f X m  x 177.6

    n 30
    MD  5.92
    ANALYSIS:
    The mean deviation of the 30 scores of Grade 10
    students is 5.92. This means that on the average, the value
    deviated from the mean of 28.7 is 5.92.
    Variance and Standard Deviation
    In getting the variance and standard deviation using the n
    point method, the steps are as follows:

    1. Multiply frequency ( f ) times midpoint (X) to get the f X and add


    all the f X values to get the sum of f X or  f X .

    2. Multiply the f X times to X get f X 2 and add all the values to get
     .
    f X 2

    3. Compute the variance and standard deviation from grouped data


    using the formula on the next slide.
