Hello! In the third article of this series on the basics of statistics, we will understand what mode is and how we calculate the mode for a particular type of data. The mode is the simplest measure of central tendency. It is defined as the value that appears most frequently in a dataset. Unlike the mean (average) […]

Definition of Central Tendency Central tendency is a statistical measure that identifies a single value representing the center or typical value of a data set. It aims to provide a concise summary of the entire distribution by locating the point around which most values cluster. The three main measures of central tendency are the mean, median, and mode. From

Many of you may have heard about binomial expansion (i.e., expanding a polynomial of two variables to their nth power). But what happens if we have to calculate ? If we start using the method of binomial expansion, it will take an extremely long time to reach the full polynomial. Hence, I am introducing a

In daily life, people often interchange the words ‘possibility’ and ‘probability’. However, these words are NOT interchangeable. “Possibility” is used when there is something that is said in qualitative terms (mostly as a vague statement). It is related to most of the tasks, which are assessed to determine whether or not they are possible to

Before jumping to this topic, you must make sure that you know how to handle percentages and calculate the values for various fractions and numbers in terms of percentage. Once done, this topic is really like its name. Simple. The most common scenario in simple interest is the percentage of return on the principal investment
This topic is pretty basic, but its applications are endless in real life. This very term (percentage) is used in countless comparisons, competitions, and evaluations. It is also used in experiments and applications of mathematical and physical laws in laboratories to measure accuracy or inaccuracy for drawing conclusions. The word percentage comes from the Latin
At some point of time in our lives, we must have seen these type of numbers on antique clocks worldwide. It is now considered stylistic to have devices that shows the numbers in Roman number. Many of the readers may have seen the Roman numbers on the Nobel prize medals, Big ben, and all the
The mathematical tables is not a new concept for people to learn and understand. But recently, it has been observed that the basic mathematical skills of people have been compromised, all thanks to excessive and uncontrolled use of AI tools that we know as of today. Also, one more thing that I noticed is the
