Data, frequencies and combinatorics

How it works

The absolute frequency counts observations. The mean distributes the sum evenly over all values. When independent choices are combined, their counts are multiplied.

Note
Mean = Sum / Count; combinations with two levels = m·n.

An example

Four children collect 5, 7, 9 and 11 points. What is the mean? Give only the requested number.

Sum = 32. Divide by four: (5+7+9+11) : 4. Result: 8.
