Worked examples

These examples are verified: each one is an automated test case that the live calculator must reproduce exactly.

The first line is the headline result (mean). Below it the mean Median Mode Range Calculator lists median, mode and range, which describe the same case from other angles. IEEE-754 double precision; shown to at most 6 decimal places.

Worked example

Mean = 27 ÷ 4 = 6.75. Sorted: 3, 7, 7, 10 so the median is (7 + 7) ÷ 2 = 7. 7 occurs twice, so it's the mode. Range = 10 − 3 = 7.

Reading together

The mean is a little below the median, hinting at slight left skew. The range shows the total spread but depends on extremes. There is no mode if all values are unique.

Choosing a summary

For 3, 7, 7, 10 the mean is 6.75, the median 7, the mode 7 and the range 7. When the mean is below the median the data is often skewed toward low values.

Report the median when outliers are likely and the mean when values are roughly symmetric. The range adds a quick measure of spread.

What happens with invalid input

These messages are produced by the calculator itself, so you know what to fix.

  • Data set: entering "x" shows "“x” is not a number." beside that field and no result.

Background: descriptive statistics

Population statistics divide by n and sample statistics divide by n − 1 (Bessel's correction), because a sample tends to understate variability. Use the population version when your data is every value in the group, and the sample version when it is a subset.

Defaults differ between tools, and so do quartile conventions, which can give slightly different values for small data sets; this page states the method it uses.

Assumptions and limitations

  • No mode when all values are unique

If a required value is empty, not a number, or outside its allowed range, the form marks that field with a message and shows no result instead of a misleading number. The automated checks deliberately try invalid entries for data set to confirm this.

Frequently asked questions

What is the range?

The maximum minus the minimum.

What if two values tie for mode?

If two values tie for most frequent, both are listed as modes (e.g. 2 and 3 in 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4).

Which should I report?

Report the mean and the median together.

Which measure of centre should I report?

Use the mean for symmetric data and the median when outliers or skew would distort the mean.

What does it mean when the mean is below the median?

It often indicates a tail of low values pulling the mean down.

What does the Mean Median Mode Range Calculator calculate?

Mean, median, mode and range of a data set. It returns Mean, Median, Mode and Range.

What formula does the Mean Median Mode Range Calculator use?

range = max − min. As the mean/median/mode calculator, plus the range.

How is the result rounded or limited?

IEEE-754 double precision; shown to at most 6 decimal places. No mode when all values are unique.

What is an example of a mean Median Mode Range result?

With data set 3, 7, 7, 10, the mean is 6.75.
