Mean, median and mode - which average do you need?
The mean adds every value and divides by the count. The median is the middle value of the sorted list (or the average of the two middle values for an even count). The mode is the most frequent value - a list can have one mode, several, or none. For skewed data such as house prices, the median usually describes a "typical" value better than the mean.
Worked example
For 4, 7, 10, 7, 3: sorted, that is 3, 4, 7, 7, 10. The sum is 31 and the count is 5, so the mean is 31 ÷ 5 = 6.2. The middle value is 7 (median), 7 appears twice so it is the mode, and the range is 10 − 3 = 7.
