MEAN (̄𝚾
UNGROUPED DATA OR
ROUGH MEAN
- is defined as the sum of all scores divided by the
number of cases.

ഥ=
𝐗 =
𝜨 𝚴 Scores as follows:
50, 43, 55, 48, 58, 70, 65, 60, 63, and 55
Where:

ഥ = Arithmetic Mean ഥ=

𝑿 𝚴
567
σ 𝑿 = Sum of all the scores =
10
𝑵 = Number of Cases ഥ = 56.7
𝐗
Note: ഥ
σ 𝚾 = 𝚴𝚾
567 = 10 (56.7)
567 = 567
WEIGHTED
ARITHMETIC MEAN
- is applicable to options of different weights.

Example: Out of the 200 students,

“How effective is the teaching of Mr. 50 students said very much
X in Computer?” effective(4);
Options: 50 students, much effective(3);
70 students, effective(2); and
4 ( very much effective) 30 students, ineffective(1).
3 (much effective)
2 (effective)
1 (ineffective)

σ 𝒇𝒙 = Sum of the products of f and x
where f is the frequency of each weight
and x is the weight, i.e., 4, 3, 2, 1

or it can be written as: σ 𝐟𝐗

ഥ=
𝐗
f x fx σ𝐟
𝟓𝟐𝟎
=
50 x 4 = 200 𝟐𝟎𝟎
50 x 3 = 150 ഥ = 2.6 (effective)
𝐗

70 x 2 = 140
30 x 1 = 30 The weighted mean value obtained
is 2.6. This means the teaching of
𝟐𝟎𝟎 𝟓𝟐𝟎 Mr. X in Computer is effective.
