Answer: D : Median, because there is 1 outlier that affects the center

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean and median terms are use to measure the central tendency in a data set.

Mean is the best measure of center if there is no outlier present in the data otherwise median is the best measure of center if there is outlier present because outliers effects the means value of a data but not the median value.

In the third period, there is an outlier present as 8 that affects the center, then the best measure of center for third period must be Median.
