SAT one-variable data practice questions

Mean, median, mode, range, and standard deviation. You find them, compare two data sets, and say how they change when a value is added, removed, or changed.

Practice one-variable data 52 questions, no account needed.

The usual trap

Know which measures an extreme value moves. Making the largest value even larger changes the mean and the range, but the median stays the same.

  1. 01Question 1

    Easy

    The data set 7, 3, 9, 3, 8 has how many values equal to its mode?

  2. 02Question 2

    Medium

    Data set A is 20, 20, 20, 20, 20. Data set B is 10, 15, 20, 25, 30. Both have a mean of 20. Which statement about their standard deviations is true?

  3. 03Question 3

    Hard

    The table shows the number of days per week that each member of a fitness club exercised last month, where k is a positive integer. The mean number of days per week for all of these members is 2.9.

    Days per weekNumber of members
