SpreadMean, median and mode are all good ways to find the centre of your data.
This information is most useful when the sets of data being compared are similar.
It is also important to find out how much your data is spread out. This gives a lot more insight to data sets that vary from each other.

This information is misleading because one graph is bell-shaped and the other is uniform, but the calculations make them appear to be similar when really A and B are spread out quite differently.

Measures of SpreadIn analysing data, it is often important to know whether it is spread out, or whether it is clustered around the mean.
Measures of spread are used to quantify the spread of the data.
The measures of spread, or dispersion are:RangeQuartilesVariance Standard deviation
![Page 6: Working with one variable data. Spread Joaquin’s Tests Taran’s Tests: 76, 45, 83, 68, 64 67, 70, 70, 62, 62 What can you infer, justify and conclude about](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e165503460f94b00f68/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
RangeThe simplest measure of dispersion.Calculated by finding the difference
between the greatest and the least values of the data.
Useful since it is the easiest to understand.
Affected by extreme data.The range of values 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, 11, 15,
25is 25 – 1 = 24

Quartiles and Interquartile RangesQuartiles divide a set of ordered data into four groups with equal numbers of values.
Lowest Datum
First Quartile
Q1
Median
Q2
Third Quartile
Q3
Highest Datum
The three “dividing points” are the first quartile (Q1), median, (sometimes called the second
quartile, Q2), and the third quartile (Q3)

Quartiles and Interquartile Ranges
Lowest Datum Q1 Median
Q2
Q3 Highest Datum
The interquartile range is Q1 – Q3, which is the range of the middle of the data.
The semi-interquartile range is one half of the interquartile range.
Both these ranges indicate how closely the data are clustered around the median.

Standard DeviationA deviation is the difference between an individual value in a set of data and the mean for the data.
Standard Deviation averages the square of the distance that each piece of data is from the mean.
The smaller the standard deviation, the more compact the data set.

Z-Scores• The number of standard deviations away from
the mean a data point is– Thus if our standard deviation is 8 then how many
8’s is a data point (13) away from the average or centre
– It is found by dividing the deviation by the standard deviation If your values are below
the mean their z score will be negative.
Similarly if your value is above the mean your z score will be positive

Percentiles
• Similar to quartiles• Percentiles divide the data into 100
intervals that have equal number of values.• k percent of the data are less than or
equal to kth percentile Pk
• Which means that you are finding what percent of the data is below your
specific value in question
• Often used for Standardized Tests
