Explanation / Answer

The quiz scores fo 12 students in a chemisty class 18,15,5,8,15,20,2,16,10,12,20,15.

A measure of central tendency that separates the data into two groups such that each group consists of 50% of the score above and 50% of the scores below that level is median.

Here after arranging the data in increasing order we get  2 5 8 10 12 15 15 15 16 18 20 20

Now the 6th and 7th observations are 15 and 15.

so the median is (15+15)/2=15

b) Measure of central tendency that represents the quiz scores that occurs most often is mode

Here the most occurred value is 15. hence mode is 15

c)the measure of central tendency that represents the average of 12 scores = (18+15+5+8+15+20+2+16+10+12+20+15)/12=13
