Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The mean is calculated by summing up all the values in a data set and dividing by the total number of values. It is also known as the arithmetic average. Option A is incorrect because the sum refers to the total of all values in a data set, not the mean specifically. Option C is incorrect because the most frequent response refers to the mode, not the mean. Option D is incorrect because the exact midpoint of the data set after ranking it in cardinal order is known as the median, not the mean.
