Arithmetic Mean ( ) : Jude Michelle J. Ureta Mpa Ii

The document defines arithmetic mean (ഥ) as the sum of all scores divided by the number of cases. It provides an algebraic formula for calculating arithmetic mean as the sum of all scores (σX) divided by the total number of cases (N). It then introduces the concept of weighted arithmetic mean, which weights different options by their values, and provides an algebraic formula to calculate weighted mean as the sum of the products of frequency (f) and weight (x) values (σfx) divided by the total sum of all frequencies (σf). It provides an example calculation of weighted mean to determine the effectiveness of a teacher based on student ratings.

Example: Out of the 200 students,


“How effective is the teaching of Mr. 50 students said very much
X in Computer?” effective(4);
Options: 50 students, much effective(3);
70 students, effective(2); and
4 ( very much effective) 30 students, ineffective(1).
3 (much effective)
2 (effective)
1 (ineffective)

30 x 1 = 30 The weighted mean value obtained
is 2.6. This means the teaching of
