How do you find the middle of a histogram?

For a dataset that has a bell-shaped histogram, the average is the best estimate of the center of the histogram. However, for a dataset that has a skewed histogram (for example with a long right tail): x is pulled in the direction of the long tail, so Q2 better represents the center of the histogram.

Does a histogram show the minimum value?

Value distribution or histogram: Shows how the values in your column are distributed. The higher the bar, the more values fall in that range. Min and max: Shows you the lowest (minimum) and highest (maximum) values in your column. Mean: Also called the average.

Can you find the median of a histogram?

On a histogram, the median value occurs where the whole histogram is divided into two equal parts. An estimate of the median can be found using algebraic methods. However, an easier method would be to use the data to draw a cumulative frequency polygon and estimate the median using that.
