The video tutorial covers measures of central tendency, including mean, median, mode, and range. It explains how to calculate these using examples such as a dot plot and age data. The instructor provides step-by-step guidance on organizing data, performing calculations, and interpreting results. The video emphasizes the importance of understanding these concepts for data analysis.

What does the median represent in a dataset?

• The middle value in the data set when ordered by size

• The most frequently occurring value in the dataset

• The difference between the largest and smallest values

• The average value of the dataset
