A. Review
Before we formally start our lesson for today,
let’s have first a review. To refresh your
knowledge about calculating the mean of
ungrouped data, do this short activity in your
seats.

Direction: Calculate the mean of the following ∑𝑥

final grades obtained by Mr. Cruz in his class. 𝑛
97 92 97 93 97+91+94+92+92+...+94

94 97 88 94
Very good! Do you still have clarification in
computing the mean of ungrouped data? = 92.4267
None, ma’am.
B. Motivation

We’ve done already discussing about solving

the mean of ungrouped data.
Since, there is an ungrouped data; do you
know that there is also a grouped data?
Do you know on how to calculate the mean of
grouped data? Yes/ No, Ma’am

C. Presentation Answer may vary.

So, our topic for today is all about the Mean
of Grouped Data.

But before that, let us read our lesson

objective for today. Begin.

At the end of the discussion, the Grade 8

1. Activity students will be able to enumerate the steps
in solving for the mean and solve for it.
Let’s have a group activity. Let’s
divide the class into 5 groups.

The instruction is already there in your

activity sheets. You are only given 10
minutes to finish your work, after that
choose your reporter to present your
work. Is that clear?

Group 1-3
Direction: Calculate the mean.

∑(𝑓𝑥) Yes ma’am.

∑𝑓
where: 𝑓 is the frequency of each class
𝑓𝑥 = product of frequency and the class mark
X is the class mark of each
class
∑(𝑓𝑥) = summation of the product of frequency
and the class mark of each class

2. Analysis

1. So based on your activity, what is

the first thing that we need to
We have to obtain the class mark of each
determine to solve the mean?
class interval.
2. How did you get the class mark?
We got the midpoint of each class interval.
3. What else aside from the class
marks?
We also need the product of the frequency
and the class mark.
4. What do we have to do with the
product of the frequency and the class
marks?
We got the sum of the product of the
frequencies and the class marks.
5. What will we do with the sum of the
product of the frequencies and the
class marks to finally get the mean of
the given grouped data?
We substitute the given data to the formula.
6. What is the formula in solving for
the mean of grouped data? ∑(𝑓𝑥)
mean =
∑𝑓

Very good!
 As we all know that the mean is one of
the measures of central tendency, it
simply means that it is a single value
which can represent the whole quality
of the given data.

3. Abstraction

What are the steps in solving for the

mean of grouped data?  Make a column for class marks.
 Multiply each class mark to its
corresponding frequency
 Get the sum of the product of the
frequencies and the class marks
 Divide the product by the size of the
sample.

mean =

mean of grouped data?

So now, let’s apply what you have

learned. I need 3 volunteers to answer
this on the board. Those who are on
your seats, kindly answer also for we
are going to check your work later.

Steps in computing the Variance of Ungrouped Data

1. Find the mean

2. Find the deviation from the mean, (𝑥 − 𝑥)
3. Square the deviations, (𝑥 − 𝑥)²

A. Review
Before we formally start our lesson for
today, let’s have first a review.
To refresh your knowledge about
computing the mean of ungrouped data, do
this short activity in your seats.

Direction: Compute the mean of the

following final grades obtained by Mr. Cruz
in his class. ∑𝑥 97+91+94+92+92+...+93

Very good!
Again, how do you solve for the mean of
ungrouped data?
 Add all the scores and divide it by the total
number of scores.
Very good.
Do you still have clarification in computing
the mean of ungrouped data?

So, we will proceed to our new topic.

None, ma’am.
B. Motivation

But before that, we will have a game. All

you have to do is to crack the code. The
code is composed of 3 words having 21
letters all in all. In order for you to reveal
the letters, all you have to do is to answer
the questions that I will be giving. Is that
clear? Are you ready?

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17

18 19 20 21

For the 2nd, 5th, 19th and 21st letter of the

code. It is the 2nd letter of the word which
means the clear liquid that has no color,
taste or smell that falls from clouds as rain.
What is the word?
What is the second letter of the word
Water?
A
Very good! You’ve reveal the 2 , 5 , 19
nd th th

and 21st letter of the code

For the 8th and 16th letter of the code.

It is the first letter of the word which means
the planet on which we live.
What is the first letter of the word Earth?
E
Now, for the 1st letter of the code. It is the
first letter of the word which means a
mountain with a hole in the top that
sometimes erupt rocks, ash and lava.
What is the first letter?
For the 9th and 14th letter of the code. It is
the 4th letter of the word which means a V
physical world and everything in it such as
plants, animals, mountains, oceans, etc. that
is not made by people.
What is the 4th letter of the word Nature?

U
Now, for the 6th and 10th letter of the code.
It is the 4th letter of the word which means
the living thing that grows in the ground
usually having leaves or flowers.
What is the 4th letter of the word plants?

Now, do you have an idea of what is our N

topic for today?
