In a perfectly symmetrical%5D%7D%7D+distribution%2C+the+%5B%5B%5Bmean%5D%5D%7D+and+the+%7B%7B%7Bmedian+are the same.
if skewed to the left, the mean is less than the median, and they are both+less than the mode
if skewed to the right, the mean is the largest, while the+mode+is the smallest

In your case is a skewed to right, the mean is the largest
so answer is:
A) mean%3Emedian
