Ranked Data Calculation

Sort our number set in ascending order

and assign a ranking to each number:

Ranked Data Table

Number Set Value12345
Rank12345

Step 2: Using original number set, assign the rank value:

Since we have 5 numbers in our original number set,
we assign ranks from lowest to highest (1 to 5)

Our original number set in unsorted order was 1,2,3,4,5

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

Root Mean Square Calculation

Root Mean Square  =  A
  N

where A = x12 + x22 + x32 + x42 + x52 and N = 5 number set items

Calculate A

A = 12 + 22 + 32 + 42 + 52

A = 1 + 4 + 9 + 16 + 25

A = 55

Calculate Root Mean Square (RMS):

RMS  =  55
  5

RMS  =  7.4161984870957
  2.2360679774998

RMS = 3.3166247903554

Central Tendency Calculation

Central tendency contains:
Mean, median, mode, harmonic mean,
geometric mean, mid-range, weighted-average:

Calculate Mean (Average) denoted as μ

μ  =  Sum of your number Set
  Total Numbers Entered

μ  =  ΣXi
  n

μ  =  1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5
  5

μ  =  15
  5

μ = 3

Calculate the Median (Middle Value)

Since our number set contains 5 elements which is an odd number,
our median number is determined as follows:

Number Set = (n1,n2,n3,n4,n5)

Median Number = Entry ½(n + 1)

Median Number = Entry ½(6)

Median Number = n3

Therefore, we sort our number set in ascending order

Our median is entry 3 of our number set highlighted in red:

(1,2,3,4,5)

Median = 3

Calculate the Mode - Highest Frequency Number

The highest frequency of occurence in our number set is 1 times
by the following numbers in green:

()

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

With N = 5 and each xi a member of the number set you entered, we have:

Harmonic Mean  =  5
  1/1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4 + 1/5

Harmonic Mean  =  5
  1 + 0.5 + 0.33333333333333 + 0.25 + 0.2

Harmonic Mean  =  5
  2.2833333333333

Harmonic Mean = 2.1897810218978

Calculate Geometric Mean:

Geometric Mean = (x1 * x2 * x3 * x4 * x5)1/N

Geometric Mean = (1 * 2 * 3 * 4 * 5)1/5

Geometric Mean = 1200.2

Geometric Mean = 2.6051710846974

Calculate Variance denoted as σ2

Let's evaluate the square difference from the mean of each term (Xi - μ)2:

(X1 - μ)2 = (1 - 3)2 = -22 = 4

(X2 - μ)2 = (2 - 3)2 = -12 = 1

(X3 - μ)2 = (3 - 3)2 = 02 = 0

(X4 - μ)2 = (4 - 3)2 = 12 = 1

(X5 - μ)2 = (5 - 3)2 = 22 = 4

Adding our 5 sum of squared differences up

ΣE(Xi - μ)2 = 4 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 4

ΣE(Xi - μ)2 = 10

Use the sum of squared differences to calculate variance

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 = (1 - 3)3 = -23 = -8

(X2 - μ)3 = (2 - 3)3 = -13 = -1

(X3 - μ)3 = (3 - 3)3 = 03 = 0

(X4 - μ)3 = (4 - 3)3 = 13 = 1

(X5 - μ)3 = (5 - 3)3 = 23 = 8

Add our 5 sum of cubed differences up

ΣE(Xi - μ)3 = -8 + -1 + 0 + 1 + 8

ΣE(Xi - μ)3 = 0

Calculate skewnes

Skewness  =  E(Xi - μ)3
  (n - 1)σ3

Calculate Average Deviation (Mean Absolute Deviation) denoted below:

AD  =  Σ|Xi - μ|
  n

Evaluate the absolute value of the difference from the mean

|Xi - μ|:

|X1 - μ| = |1 - 3| = |-2| = 2

|X2 - μ| = |2 - 3| = |-1| = 1

|X3 - μ| = |3 - 3| = |0| = 0

|X4 - μ| = |4 - 3| = |1| = 1

|X5 - μ| = |5 - 3| = |2| = 2

Average deviation numerator:

Σ|Xi - μ| = 2 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 2

Σ|Xi - μ| = 6

Calculate average deviation (mean absolute deviation)

AD  =  Σ|Xi - μ|

Average Deviation = 1.2

Calculate the Range

Range = Largest Number in the Number Set - Smallest Number in the Number Set

Range = 5 - 1

Range = 4

Calculate Pearsons Skewness Coefficient 1:

PSC1  =  μ - Mode
  σ

PSC1  =  3(3 - N/A)
  1.4142

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

Calculate Pearsons Skewness Coefficient 2:

PSC2  =  μ - Median
  σ

PSC1  =  3(3 - 3)
  1.4142

PSC2  =  3 x 0

Calculate the Quartile Items

We need to sort our number set from lowest to highest shown below:

{1,2,3,4,5}

Calculate Upper Quartile (UQ) when y = 75%:

V  =  y(n + 1)
  100

V  =  75(5 + 1)
  100

V  =  75(6)
  100

V  =  450
  100

V = 4 ← Rounded down to the nearest integer

Upper quartile (UQ) point = Point # 4 in the dataset which is 4

1,2,3,4,5

Calculate Lower Quartile (LQ) when y = 25%:

V  =  y(n + 1)
  100

V  =  25(5 + 1)
  100

V  =  25(6)
  100

V  =  150
  100

V = 2 ← Rounded up to the nearest integer

Lower quartile (LQ) point = Point # 2 in the dataset which is 2

1,2,3,4,5

Calculate Inter-Quartile Range (IQR):

IQR = UQ - LQ

IQR = 4 - 2

IQR = 2

Calculate Lower Inner Fence (LIF):

Lower Inner Fence (LIF) = LQ - 1.5 x IQR

Lower Inner Fence (LIF) = 2 - 1.5 x 2

Lower Inner Fence (LIF) = 2 - 3

Lower Inner Fence (LIF) = -1

Calculate Upper Inner Fence (UIF):

Upper Inner Fence (UIF) = UQ + 1.5 x IQR

Upper Inner Fence (UIF) = 4 + 1.5 x 2

Upper Inner Fence (UIF) = 4 + 3

Upper Inner Fence (UIF) = 7

Calculate Lower Outer Fence (LOF):

Lower Outer Fence (LOF) = LQ - 3 x IQR

Lower Outer Fence (LOF) = 2 - 6

Lower Outer Fence (LOF) = -4

Calculate Upper Outer Fence (UOF):

Upper Outer Fence (UOF) = UQ + 3 x IQR

Upper Outer Fence (UOF) = 4 + 3 x 2

Upper Outer Fence (UOF) = 4 + 6

Upper Outer Fence (UOF) = 10

Calculate Suspect Outliers:

Suspect Outliers are values between the inner and outer fences

Weighted-Average Formula:

Multiply each value by each probability amount

We do this by multiplying each Xi x pi to get a weighted score Y

Weighted Average  =  X1p1 + X2p2 + X3p3 + X4p4 + X5p5

Weighted Average = 0

Frequency Distribution Table

Show the freqency distribution table for this number set

1, 2, 3, 4, 5

Determine the Number of Intervals using Sturges Rule:

Choose the smallest integer k such that 2k ≥ n where n = 5

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 5

Therefore, we use 3 intervals

Our maximum value in our number set of 5 - 1 = 4

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

Interval Size  =  4
  3

Add 1 to this giving us 1 + 1 = 2
