Concept Intro (Sharing Food) - Term to Description (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on the fundamental concepts of statistics, specifically involving measures of central tendency (mean, median, and mode) and range using the context of distributing candies. It covers the practical understanding and differentiation of mean as the average number of candies shared evenly among kids, median as the middle value when candies are arranged in order, mode as the most frequently occurring number of candies, and range as the difference between the maximum and minimum counts of candies. These problems are designed to help students conceptualize how statistical terms apply to everyday scenarios.
