Concepts

A data set has one extreme outlier that is much larger than all
other values. Which measure of center should you use to represent
a typical value in this data set?

Mean, because it uses all the data values.

Median, because it is not affected by the outlier.

Mode, because it represents the most common value.

Range, because it captures the full spread.
