Find the Mean, Median and Mode is a Grade 6 mathematics worksheet that helps students identify and calculate the three measures of central tendency in numerical data sets. Across 12 questions, students complete 3 fill-in-the-blank items and 9 multiple-choice items covering whole-number and decimal data, including sets with no mode, one mode, and two modes. Several median questions require students to arrange values from least to greatest before selecting or entering the middle value, while mean questions require adding the data and dividing by the number of values. This free printable worksheet gives students focused practice distinguishing when to use each measure and interpreting the results accurately. It is useful for independent practice, review, homework, or a quick formative assessment after instruction on mean, median, and mode. The worksheet includes a complete answer key so teachers can check both calculated responses and students’ understanding of cases such as an even-numbered data set, repeated values, and decimal averages.

This Grade 6 mathematics worksheet asks students to find the mean, median, and mode for 12 data sets using 3 fill-in-the-blank questions and 9 multiple-choice questions. Students calculate decimal means, order values before finding medians, and recognize data sets with no mode, one mode, or two modes.
Model one data set by separating the three procedures: add and divide to find the mean, arrange values from least to greatest to find the median, and count repeated values to find the mode. Then have students explain why an even-numbered set may require averaging the two middle values and why a set can have no mode or two modes before completing the worksheet’s fill-in-the-blank and multiple-choice items.
Watch for students finding a median without first ordering the values, especially in the items that explicitly require least-to-greatest order. Students may also select a single mode when two values repeat equally, choose a mode when every value occurs once, or round or miscalculate the decimal means instead of selecting the exact value shown.
The Find the Mean, Median and Mode worksheet is available as a printable PDF and as a digital quiz on Wayground, and it includes a complete answer key. You can grade printable submissions by scanning student work with the Wayground for Teachers app, or review responses from the digital quiz.
Use the worksheet’s Advanced Settings to increase font size or adjust font spacing so the data sets and answer choices are easier to read. You can also apply a dyslexia-friendly font or translate the worksheet into another language while keeping the calculation and ordering tasks intact.
