Our respective ranked data set is 5,4,6,3,2,1

Root Mean Square Calculation

Root Mean Square  =  A
  N

where A = x12 + x22 + x32 + x42 + x52 + x62 and N = 6 number set items

Calculate A

A = 70.62 + 75.12 + 78.32 + 86.92 + 87.42 + 89.92

A = 4984.36 + 5640.01 + 6130.89 + 7551.61 + 7638.76 + 8082.01

A = 40027.64

μ = 81.366666666667

Calculate the Median (Middle Value)
Since our number set contains 6 elements which is an even number, our median number is determined as follows:
Number Set = (n1,n2,n3,n4,n5,n6)
Median Number 1 = ½(n)
Median Number 1 = ½(6)
Median Number 1 = Number Set Entry 3

Median Number 2 = Median Number 1 + 1
Median Number 2 = Number Set Entry 3 + 1
Median Number 2 = Number Set Entry 4

For an even number set, we average the 2 median number entries:
Median = ½(n3 + n4)

Therefore, we sort our number set in ascending order and our median is the average of entry 3 and entry 4 of our number set highlighted in red:
(70.6,75.1,78.3,86.9,87.4,89.9)
Median = ½(78.3 + 86.9)
Median = ½(165.2)
Median = 82.6

Calculate the Mode - Highest Frequency Number

The highest frequency of occurence in our number set is 1 times by the following numbers in green:
(87.4,86.9,89.9,78.3,75.1,70.6)
Since the maximum frequency of any number is 1, no mode exists.
Mode = N/A

Calculate Harmonic Mean:

Harmonic Mean  =  N
  1/x1 + 1/x2 + 1/x3 + 1/x4 + 1/x5 + 1/x6

With N = 6 and each xi a member of the number set you entered, we have:
Harmonic Mean  =  6
  1/70.6 + 1/75.1 + 1/78.3 + 1/86.9 + 1/87.4 + 1/89.9

Harmonic Mean  =  6
  0.074323875240409

Harmonic Mean = 80.727760502158

Calculate Geometric Mean:

Geometric Mean = (x1 * x2 * x3 * x4 * x5 * x6)1/N
Geometric Mean = (70.6 * 75.1 * 78.3 * 86.9 * 87.4 * 89.9)1/6
Geometric Mean = 283463601663.170.16666666666667
Geometric Mean = 81.049352596614

Calcualte Mid-Range:

Calculate Variance denoted as σ2
Let's evaluate the square difference from the mean of each term (Xi - μ)2:
(X1 - μ)2 = (70.6 - 81.366666666667)2 = -10.7666666666672 = 115.92111111111
(X2 - μ)2 = (75.1 - 81.366666666667)2 = -6.26666666666672 = 39.271111111111
(X3 - μ)2 = (78.3 - 81.366666666667)2 = -3.06666666666672 = 9.4044444444444
(X4 - μ)2 = (86.9 - 81.366666666667)2 = 5.53333333333332 = 30.617777777778
(X5 - μ)2 = (87.4 - 81.366666666667)2 = 6.03333333333332 = 36.401111111111
(X6 - μ)2 = (89.9 - 81.366666666667)2 = 8.53333333333332 = 72.817777777778

Adding our 6 sum of squared differences up, we have our variance numerator:
ΣE(Xi - μ)2 = 115.92111111111 + 39.271111111111 + 9.4044444444444 + 30.617777777778 + 36.401111111111 + 72.817777777778
ΣE(Xi - μ)2 = 304.43333333333

Now that we have the sum of squared differences from the means, calculate variance:
PopulationSample
σ2  =  ΣE(Xi - μ)2

σ2  =  ΣE(Xi - μ)2
  n - 1

σ2  =  304.43333333333

Calculate Skewness:

Skewness  =  E(Xi - μ)3
  (n - 1)σ3

Let's evaluate the square difference from the mean of each term (Xi - μ)3:
(X1 - μ)3 = (70.6 - 81.366666666667)3 = -10.7666666666673 = -1248.083962963
(X2 - μ)3 = (75.1 - 81.366666666667)3 = -6.26666666666673 = -246.09896296296
(X3 - μ)3 = (78.3 - 81.366666666667)3 = -3.06666666666673 = -28.840296296296
(X4 - μ)3 = (86.9 - 81.366666666667)3 = 5.53333333333333 = 169.41837037037
(X5 - μ)3 = (87.4 - 81.366666666667)3 = 6.03333333333333 = 219.62003703704
(X6 - μ)3 = (89.9 - 81.366666666667)3 = 8.53333333333333 = 621.37837037037

Adding our 6 sum of cubed differences up, we have our skewness numerator:
ΣE(Xi - μ)3 = -1248.083962963 + -246.09896296296 + -28.840296296296 + 169.41837037037 + 219.62003703704 + 621.37837037037
ΣE(Xi - μ)3 = -512.60644444444

Now that we have the sum of cubed differences from the means, calculate skewness:
Skewness  =  E(Xi - μ)3
  (n - 1)σ3

Skewness  =  -512.60644444444
  (6 - 1)7.12313

Skewness  =  -512.60644444444
  (5)361.41579121939

Skewness  =  -512.60644444444
  1807.078956097

Skewness = -0.2836657705049

Calculate Average Deviation (Mean Absolute Deviation) denoted below:

AD  =  Σ|Xi - μ|
  n

Let's evaluate the absolute value of the difference from the mean of each term |Xi - μ|:
|X1 - μ| = |70.6 - 81.366666666667| = |-10.766666666667| = 10.766666666667
|X2 - μ| = |75.1 - 81.366666666667| = |-6.2666666666667| = 6.2666666666667
|X3 - μ| = |78.3 - 81.366666666667| = |-3.0666666666667| = 3.0666666666667
|X4 - μ| = |86.9 - 81.366666666667| = |5.5333333333333| = 5.5333333333333
|X5 - μ| = |87.4 - 81.366666666667| = |6.0333333333333| = 6.0333333333333
|X6 - μ| = |89.9 - 81.366666666667| = |8.5333333333333| = 8.5333333333333

Adding our 6 absolute value of differences from the mean, we have our average deviation numerator:
Σ|Xi - μ| = 10.766666666667 + 6.2666666666667 + 3.0666666666667 + 5.5333333333333 + 6.0333333333333 + 8.5333333333333
Σ|Xi - μ| = 40.2

Now that we have the absolute value of the differences from the means, calculate average deviation (mean absolute deviation):
AD  =  Σ|Xi - μ|
  n

AD  =  40.2
  6

Average Deviation = 6.7

Calculate the Median (Middle Value)
Since our number set contains 6 elements which is an even number, our median number is determined as follows:
Number Set = (n1,n2,n3,n4,n5,n6)
Median Number 1 = ½(n)
Median Number 1 = ½(6)
Median Number 1 = Number Set Entry 3

Median Number 2 = Median Number 1 + 1
Median Number 2 = Number Set Entry 3 + 1
Median Number 2 = Number Set Entry 4

For an even number set, we average the 2 median number entries:
Median = ½(n3 + n4)

Therefore, we sort our number set in ascending order and our median is the average of entry 3 and entry 4 of our number set highlighted in red:
(70.6,75.1,78.3,86.9,87.4,89.9)
Median = ½(78.3 + 86.9)
Median = ½(165.2)
Median = 82.6

Calculate the Mode - Highest Frequency Number

The highest frequency of occurence in our number set is 1 times by the following numbers in green:
(87.4,86.9,89.9,78.3,75.1,70.6)
Since the maximum frequency of any number is 1, no mode exists.
Mode = N/A

Calculate the Range

Range = Largest Number in the Number Set - Smallest Number in the Number Set
Range = 89.9 - 70.6
Range = 19.3

Calculate Pearsons Skewness Coefficient 1:

PSC1  =  μ - Mode
  σ

PSC1  =  3(81.366666666667 - N/A)
  7.1231

Since no mode exists, we do not have a Pearsons Skewness Coefficient 1

Calculate Pearsons Skewness Coefficient 2:

PSC2  =  μ - Median
  σ

PSC1  =  3(81.366666666667 - 82.6)
  7.1231

PSC2  =  3 x -1.2333333333333
  7.1231

PSC2  =  -3.7
  7.1231

PSC2 = -0.5194

Entropy = Ln(n)
Entropy = Ln(6)
Entropy = 1.7917594692281

70.6,75.1,78.3,86.9,87.4,89.9

Calculate Inter-Quartile Range (IQR):

IQR = UQ - LQ
IQR = 87.4 - 75.1
IQR = 12.3

Calculate Lower Inner Fence (LIF):

Lower Inner Fence (LIF) = LQ - 1.5 x IQR
Lower Inner Fence (LIF) = 75.1 - 1.5 x 12.3
Lower Inner Fence (LIF) = 75.1 - 18.45
Lower Inner Fence (LIF) = 56.65

Calculate Upper Inner Fence (UIF):

Upper Inner Fence (UIF) = UQ + 1.5 x IQR
Upper Inner Fence (UIF) = 87.4 + 1.5 x 12.3
Upper Inner Fence (UIF) = 87.4 + 18.45
Upper Inner Fence (UIF) = 105.85

Calculate Lower Outer Fence (LOF):

Lower Outer Fence (LOF) = LQ - 3 x IQR
Lower Outer Fence (LOF) = 75.1 - 3 x 12.3
Lower Outer Fence (LOF) = 75.1 - 36.9
Lower Outer Fence (LOF) = 38.2

Calculate Upper Outer Fence (UOF):

Upper Outer Fence (UOF) = UQ + 3 x IQR
Upper Outer Fence (UOF) = 87.4 + 3 x 12.3
Upper Outer Fence (UOF) = 87.4 + 36.9
Upper Outer Fence (UOF) = 124.3

Frequency Distribution Table

Show the freqency distribution table for this number set

70.6, 75.1, 78.3, 86.9, 87.4, 89.9

Determine the Number of Intervals using Sturges Rule:

We need to choose the smallest integer k such that 2k ≥ n where n = 6

For k = 1, we have 21 = 2

For k = 2, we have 22 = 4

For k = 3, we have 23 = 8 ← Use this since it is greater than our n value of 6

Therefore, we use 3 intervals

Our maximum value in our number set of 89.9 - 70.6 = 19.3

Each interval size is the difference of the maximum and minimum value divided by the number of intervals

Interval Size  =  19.3
