In two or more complete sentences, explain the relationship between the mean, median and mode.

Mean, median, and mode can be defined as three kinds of "averages". If the data are numbers:

•Mean - when you sum all the numbers and then divide by the number of numbers

•Median -  the "middle" value in the list of numbers ( numbers sholud be listed in numerical order from smallest to largest)

•Mode -  the value that occurs most often.

If the distribution is normal (symmetric histogram) then mean, median and mode are equal.

If  histogram is skewed-to-the-left (negatively skewed histogram) the mean is the smallest, the mode is the biggest, and the median is between the mean and the mode.

If histogram is skewed-to-the-right (positively skewed histogram)  the mean is the biggest, the mode is the smallest, and the median is between the mean and the mode.
