The median, because the data is not symmetric and there are outliers is the data is not symmetric and there are outliers.
The median of the data set is 8 cakes, while the average is 7.5.
However, 21 of the 31 chefs, or roughly 2/3, made 8 or more cakes. This makes the median a better center for this data, since the data is clearly skewed. The four chefs that made 1 cake each brings the average down, skewing the mean and making the median a better representation of the data.
2* .75 + y = 4
1.5 + y = 4
Subtract 1.5 From Each Side
Y = 2.5 Or 2 1/2
