Answer:
Hence, Mean or median best represents the center of data.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the median is said to be the central tendency of the data.
We are given a data set as:
{27, 29, 26, 28, 25}
Clearly these are 5 data points.
on arranging the data in the increasing order or ascending order we get:
25 26 27 28 29
The median of data is the middle value of the data.
Hence, here we get Median= 27
So, the mean of the data is calculated as the ratio of sum of all the data points to the number of data points.
so,
[tex]Mean=\dfrac{25+26+27+28+29}{5}\\\\Mean=\dfrac{135}{5}\\\\Mean=27[/tex]
hence, we get Mean=Median.
Hence, Mean or median best represents the center of data as both are equal.
