Advanced MCQ on Arithmetic Mean (PDF)

The arithmetic mean, commonly referred to as the mean, is a measure of central tendency that represents the average value of a dataset. It is calculated by summing all the values in the dataset and then dividing by the number of values. For example, in the dataset [2, 4, 6, 8), the arithmetic mean is ((2 + 4 + 6 + 8) / 4 = 20 / 4 = 5). The arithmetic mean provides a single value that summarizes the center of the data distribution but can be affected by extreme values or outliers. This is an advanced MCQ on Mean with Answers.
