I. Introduction

The weight of an individual has been very important since the moment all the
people were born. As you get older, your weight is still important. It's something
our parents and doctor will probably keep an eye on
There are many reasons why measuring body fat is important. First, it will give
you an overall impression of your health. If your body percentage is too high or
even too low, it can be indicative of the need for a change in lifestyle. Second,
measuring body fat percentage sets a good baseline, and later body
measurements can be a useful way to track your progress. Reaching and
maintaining a healthy weight is important for overall health and can help you
prevent and control many diseases and conditions. If you are overweight or
obese, you are at higher risk of developing serious health problems, including
heart disease, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, gallstones, breathing
problems, and certain cancers.
That is why maintaining a healthy weight is so important: It helps you lower
your risk for developing these problems, helps you feel good about yourself, and
gives you more energy to enjoy life. Having a healthy weight means having a
healthy lifestyle.

This study is conducted to find the weight of the students, of the BEEd-
General Education III Block A, and to tell whether the respondents weight is
normal and would hopefully give awareness and recommendation about the
findings.

II. Methodology
2.1 Data Gathering
Upon the designated topic to the researchers that covers the
descriptive analysis of the students' weight in third year Gen. Ed. block-A,
the researchers utilized the weighing scale to get the exact weight of each
students and the unit used is kilogram. Two weighing scales were
provided that made each weighing scale used by half of the class. Before
stepping on the weighing scale, students were asked to remove their
shoes and other stuffs that may cause an additional increase of their
original weight. Students' weights were listed by the researchers to be
analyzed.

2.2 Descriptive Statistics Used
After gathering the data the researchers arranged it from the lightest to
the heaviest weight among the gathered data. To get the mean, all the
data were added and it is then divided by the number of students. Median
is taken by locating the midpoint from the data. The most repeated among
the observations is identified as bimodal arrangement where two values
appeared frequently. Mean, median and mode as three important factors
in identifying the measure of asymmetry which is called skewness. The
observation appears to be positively skewed to the right because the
median is lesser than the mean. With the given mean, the Standard
Deviation is said to be 7.468.

Standard Deviation
- A statistic that measures the dispersion of a sample.
-A parameter that indicates the way in which a probability
function or a probability density function is centered on its mean and
that is equal to the square root of the moment in which the deviation
from the mean is squared.
Standard deviation formula:

SD= 7.468
Mean
In a data set, the sum of all the data points, divided by the number of data
points. It is also called the average.
Formula for mean:

Median
-The middle number in a data set when the data are put in order.
A. Ungrouped data
Arrange elements from highest to lowest then find the middle number.
If the no. of numbers is an odd number then add the 2 numbers that
are in the middle and divide by 2

Skewness
- Lack of symmetry in a frequency distribution. It is a measure of
asymmetry of the probability distribution of a real valued random
variable about its mean.

III. Analysis/Conclusions

Based on the graphs presented, most of the peak appears at the
midpoint 42 with a class boundary of 38.5- 45.5 and a relative frequency of
0.40. Therefore, most of the students in BEED- General Education 3-Block A
weighs 39-45 kilograms with the frequency of 23, followed by 19 students
weighing 46-52 kilograms, 7 students weigh 53-59 kilograms, 5 students weigh
32-38 kilograms, 2 students weigh 60-66 kilograms and only one student
weighs 74-80 kilograms. This indicates that the students of BEEd-General
Education 3-Block A have normal weights.
