Arithmetic Mean Formula
-
Formula:
Average (x̄) = (x₁ + x₂ + ... + xₙ) / n - Sum (Σx): Total sum of all valid numbers entered.
- Count (n): Total quantity of numerical entries in the sample.
Worked Numerical Example
-
Test Scores: Values: 80, 90, 85, 95.
Sum = 350,Count = 4.Average = 350 / 4 = 87.5.
