Understanding Averages
An average is a single value representing a set of numbers. There are different types of averages: mean (arithmetic average), median (middle value), and mode (most common value). Each serves different purposes in statistics and data analysis.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between mean and median?
Mean is the sum divided by count - affected by extreme values. Median is the middle value when sorted - not affected by outliers. For skewed data, median often represents 'typical' better.
Can there be multiple modes?
Yes. If two values appear equally often, data is bimodal. If three or more, it's multimodal. If no value repeats, there's no mode.
When should I use median instead of mean?
Use median when data has outliers (extreme values) or is skewed. Example: median income is more representative than mean income because a few billionaires skew the mean upward.
