Short answer

Central tendency of a data set: mean, median and mode.

What is the Mean, Median & Mode Calculator?

Central tendency of a data set: mean, median and mode.

How does the Mean, Median & Mode Calculator work?

Enter the inputs above and read the result.

Formula

Mean = Σx ÷ n; Median = middle value; Mode = most frequent value

Variables

  • ΣxSum of values
  • nCount

Explanation

Mean, median and mode each describe the 'center' of data differently — mean is sensitive to outliers, median is not.

            Understanding Mean, Median & Mode

            Central tendency of a data set: mean, median and mode. Within math calculators, mean, median & mode belongs to the statistics & probability cluster, where it shares terminology and assumptions with closely related tools.

            Learning how mean, median & mode is calculated

            Mean, median and mode each describe the 'center' of data differently — mean is sensitive to outliers, median is not. Working through the variables one at a time — Σx, n — makes the result reproducible by hand and easier to sanity-check.

            Using mean, median & mode to make a decision

            Because outputs depend on the assumptions you enter, run more than one scenario before committing to a figure.

            How mean, median & mode compares with related measures

            distribution, dispersion, significance, sample all describe adjacent aspects of statistics & probability. Comparing this calculator's output against those measures — using the related tools listed on this page — prevents a single metric from being read in isolation.
