Question 1171955: The 9 members of a fraternity have the following test scores:
66, 118, 119, 120, 122, 125, 127, 128, 129.
Which measure should be used to summarize the data? Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The best measure of central tendency here is the median, because all but one of the scores are similar.
The median is 122, and that represents the center off the scores well.
The mean is 117.1 and while not a bad representation of the scores, it is brought down significantly by the single outlier.
