Worked example

  1. The goal: find the mean – what each value would be if they were all equal.
  2. Mean = the sum of all values ÷ the number of values.
  3. Example: 4, 6, 8. Sum: 4 + 6 + 8 = 18.
  4. 18 ÷ 3 = 6. Answer: the mean is 6.
  5. Check: read the question again. Does your answer give what was asked, with the right unit? Work backwards to see that it fits. ✓

About this generator

Averages summarise a data set with one number. The mean is the sum divided by the count, the median is the middle value and the mode is the most common value. The easier level uses short lists with whole-number answers; harder levels use longer lists and decimals. Switch the exercise type to median and mode for more practice. The answer key is calculated by the website, so it always matches the tasks. No sign-up is needed and no personal data is collected.
