Question
question #10 a set of data has the following frequency distribution. which measure of center should be used to describe the center of the data? mode median mean range
The mode is the value that appears most frequently in a data set. In a frequency distribution, the mode corresponds to the category with the highest frequency. Here, since we are looking for the measure of center based on frequency (the tallest bar in the histogram - like representation), the mode is appropriate. The median is the middle - value (not directly related to the highest frequency). The mean is the average (affected by all values, not just frequency height). The range is a measure of spread, not a measure of center.
