Mean; 2
Mean; 4


Sagot :

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the set of data collected has an extreme value (24), a Median measure of center is more appropriate than a Mean measure.

We sort the same data collected in increasing order:

{0, 1, 2, 4, 4, 5, 5, 24}

There are 8 elements inside the set, so we check the 4th and 5th elements (closest to the center), which are 4 and 4.

Since they are equal, the Median is 4.

Our answer is Median; 4.

Answer:

median 4
