CCSS Description: Summarize numerical data sets in relation to their context, such as by: a. Reporting the number of observations. b. Describing the nature of the attribute under investigation, including how it was measured and its units of measurement. c. Giving quantitative measures of center (median and/or mean) and variability (interquartile range and/or mean absolute deviation), as well as describing any overall pattern and any striking deviations from the overall pattern with reference to the context in which the data were gathered. d. Relating the choice of measures of center and variability to the shape of the data distribution and the context in which the data were gathered.
Use statistics appropriate to the shape of the data distribution to compare center (median, mean) and spread (interquartile range, standard deviation) of two or more different data sets.

The Mean (B) WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
This worksheet follows on from Mean (A). Section A provides a small completion table consisting of listed data, a given mean, and total sums. Section B then provides some discrete frequency tables and other charts for the mean to be found. An extension section challenges learners with working out unknown values and a word problem.
