Question 852494: Suppose the class takes a test and the following measures of central tendency are calculated:
a. Mean = 80
b. Mode = 70
c. Median = 90
Jill, who scored an 80, would like to know if she did better than half the class. What is your response? Explain.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Since the median = 90 , 90 is is the value of the middle score and
approximately 1/2 of the class is this number or below.
This puts Jill in the bottom half.
