Common mistakes

What learners typically get wrong, and how to fix it.

  • Finds the median without ordering the data.

    Correction: Always put the numbers in order first.

  • Gives the range as the two end numbers.

    Correction: Range is one number: largest minus smallest.

Teacher tips

  • · Collect real class data (heights, shoe sizes).

Parent tips

  • · Work out your average bedtime over a week.

Real-life applications
