Analysis

• By adding up the raw scores and dividing it by
  105, the group was able to get 22.35 kg/m2 as the
  mean or average body mass.
• Using grouped data, the mean turned out to be
  22.419048 kg/m2 which is slightly larger than the
  previously mentioned mean.
• The class interval 20 - 24 kg/ m2 garnered the
  most number of frequencies, thereby making it the
  modal class interval. Almost half of all the
  freshmen surveyed (43.81) have body masses
  within this interval

• Most of the freshmen surveyed (79.05) have 16 -
  24 kg/m2 body mass. Only 20.95 of those surveyed
  have body mass greater than 24 kg/m2.
• Among those occuring twice are 20.02, 20.10,17.61
  and 16.68 kg/m2. Any of these can be considered
  as the mode. The rest of the values occur only
  once.
• The freshmen show a wide range of body masses,
  the smallest body mass being only 16.68 kg/m2
  while the greatest body mass being 40.81 kg/m2.
  The freshmen students' body mass has a range of
  25.13 kg/m2.

• Using raw scores, the standard deviation is 4.86.
  This means that on the average, we would expect
  that most of the body masses of the freshmen
  would be 22.35 ? 4.86 kg/m2 or will fall within
  17.49 27.21 kg/m2. The small value of the
  standard deviation indicates that the
  observations (body masses) are more clustered
  about the mean.
• Using grouped data, the standard deviation is
  5.06. This means that on the average, we would
  expect that most of the body masses of the
  freshmen would be 22.42 ? 5.06 kg/m2 or will fall
  within 17.36 27.48 kg/m2. The small value of
  the standard deviation indicates that the
  observations (body masses) are more clustered
  about the mean.

• Using the Body Mass Index and the mean, we can
  say that an average Ateneo Freshman is generally
  in correct weight, proportional to his or her
  body.
