Application of Mean, Median and Mode [In Real Life] [Uses in Real Life]

The video illustrates various applications of Mean, Median and Mode in real life scenarios. Though the viewer is expected to know the basic concepts of measures of central tendency like Mean, Median and Mode, these are grazed through briefly in this video. The uses of summary statistics like Mean, Median and Mode in real life are discussed using some examples from the business.
A few tips on how to use Mean, Median and Mode in your daily life chores and your household are also shared using appropriate examples.

Exactly what I was searching for. I had gone through many videos and all of them explain how to find central tendency but no one told about the applications. It is a great video.

[@LearningPuree]

Glad it was helpful! You look up the other videos as well.

[@joshua_dlima]

I was solving the stick lengths question in the cses sheet and tried it for so many days using variations of mean, finally discovered that median has to be used. Thanks a billion for the crystal clear explanation! I subbed

[@LearningPuree]

Excellent! Glad it was helpful!!

[@kidpriyankabieber]

Finally, someone is giving real-time example of the boring mean median mode concept. thank you so much sir

[@LearningPuree]

Glad you have liked it! You can view the other videos/playlists for different Statistics concepts as well. Some are a bit theoretical, on purpose. Most would be application oriented taking real-life examples.

arithmetic mean of grouped data and its uses

There are many Indian authors. Pick up any book referred for UG Stats in India.

[@manzoorwanigeo2335]

If we have to take average air temperature on daily basis, what method we can adopt (mean, mode, median).
Eg. Maximum temperature is 10 degree & minimum temperature is -2 degree.
Is it suitable to take mean, as median, mode seems to be impossible here.

[@LearningPuree]

We cannot employ a tool simply because it is available. The domain and data is studied before employing any tool. Moreover, taking a Mean does not imply simply taking an average of 2 extreme readings. Temperature is tracked hourly, throughout the day.

[@manzoorwanigeo2335]

@@LearningPuree we take daily range temperature..difference of maximum and minimum temperature.

[@LearningPuree]

@@manzoorwanigeo2335 The choice of the parameter you track is decided by the domain requirement. Range identifies the dispersion, not the central tendency. You would know that temperature is a continuous variable and a distribution can be plotted through the time period it is tracked. The distribution needs to be studied on what parameters you choose to track.

[@sidrarafiq4323]

How we decide which variable will take on x-axis and which on y-axis. Plz tell me sir...

[@LearningPuree]

In case of correlation it does not matter. In case of regression, the independent variable will be on the x-axis.

[@ankuragarwal2783]

Can you help with some examples where average is a better measure to use than median?

[@LearningPuree]

I understand you are referring to Arithmetic Mean versus Median. To help you out, if you have understood the basic concept behind the selection of a measure it should serve the purpose.

Sir Suppose A Valve Manufacturer Produce Their Valves ( A , B , C , D ) --- > there are four valve type and error shows ( A --> 5.2 , B ---> 0.2 , C ----> 0.5 , D ----> 1 ) , so it shows a skewed graph but to get better solution what error value that should be taken by valve manufacturer ? is that median of those error values or mean ???

[@LearningPuree]

The fact that you have different valves, you do not have a homogenous dataset. Further, you are referring to some error in manufacturing of each valve type. What decision do you want to arrive at?! A tool need not be used simply because it is available!

[@captainstreamer3261]

@@LearningPuree Sir Valve manufacturer try to pic one value of error from that dataset that I given, thus they can make all the valves, producing minimum error

[@LearningPuree]

Again, it depends on what what business decision is required. You have already mentioned that all are different types of valves. So, one cannot compare apples with oranges. However, if the manufacturer wants to choose between valve types based ONLY on minimum error (and no other constraints/factors) then he is free to do so.

[@ganeshtevarannavar4191]

Sir where we can use frequency distribution in daily life

[@LearningPuree]

Identifying Mode of data, understanding distribution of the data using histogram or for understanding preferences (product, taste, flavour etc.). Additionally, please lookup the video tutorials on probability distribution.

[@anilgawade8190]

Sir aapne Kya padha hai..degree

[@priyagupta8673]

Mean uses when data not skewed
Median and mode use when data skewed
Like : 3,7,10,12,15,19, 20 in this we use mean bcz data not skewed
3,10,50,75,200 in this we can't use mean bcz data skewed
Is it ryt???
But sir what is positive skewed or negative skewed???

[@LearningPuree]

The point to note is that when we have extreme values in the data, then Mean may not be the right choice. To an extent, the example on 3, 10 and 200 could be acceptable. Skewness refers to how much the data when plotted on a graph is asymmetric indicated by how many less frequent values towards one tail (side) of the curve. The graphic in the video is a good example of the same. A quick way of understanding positive skew is whether the tail is longer and thinner towards the right which means more frequency of values on the left. Negative skew is exactly the opposite.

[@archanaprasad2382]

Can I get some real life examples for grade VII

[@LearningPuree]

Archana, all the 3 concepts are examples of an "Average" which means the middle number OR a balanced number. To initiate the concept, you could use the concept of tally marks, placing dots on a line or may be even employ pictures. Number line is another best way to initiate the concept, then get them "warmed-up" before graduating to the next level of "real-life". There is NO single way in which these concepts can be explained to this level of the student. The best way is to tailor the life example with which the child identifies i.e. either Chocolate/Pizza/Cake/Pancake(Roti)/Apples etc. Mostly, the first 3 work :)

[@anmolramgiri881]

What about this case - 1,2,50,99,100.

[@LearningPuree]

If you have followed through the concept, the answer is all too evident!

[@anmolramgiri881]

@@LearningPuree The answer for median is evident but 50 is not representing the set. I mean let's take the classic example of Median - A family of different ages wants to watch a TV programme and the programme will be of the median age. In this case the median comes as 50 but in practical sense it makes no sense.

[@LearningPuree]

Anmol, the question you asked was without reference of any source of the data. In that context the answer is evident. To which you do agree! Now, let us consider the example of the source of the data you have provided. In practical sense I am yet to see a 1 year old or a 2 year old able to watch and understand a TV program that is ALSO consumed by 50 + year old. Please understand any data is always studied for actionability with reference to the source of the data and the TG.
