Question

Mr. Janes is trying to determine what the "average" grade in his geometry class is. Everyone seems to be getting A's, B's, and C's except for Brennan, who has a grade of 2 out of 100. Should Mr. Janes use the mean or median as his "average"?

Answer 1

For this problem you wouldn't want to use the mean since Brennan's score for 2% would bring everyone else down. You would use the median, since the median would be somewhere in the A's B's and C's
