  1. Step 1

    First organize your data (numbers) from lowest to highest

  2. Step 2

    Median is the middle number. To find median, find the number in the exact middle of your data after you have organized it. If there are two numbers in the middle, add them together and divide by two to find the median

  3. Step 3

    The mean is the average. To find the average, add up all the numbers and divide by how many numbers there are in the list of data.

  4. Step 4

    The mode is the number that occurs most frequents. Look at your list, whichever number or numbers that occur most frequently (more than one) is your mode. More than two numbers can be the mode if they occur the same amount of times. There can be no mode if all of the numbers in the data list only occur once.
