Answer:
Both the mean and median and they both gives a measure of 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data about the ages of 7 people :
17,20,22,12,15,12,21
Ordered data: 12, 12, 15, 17, 20, 21, 22
To find the median :
Median = 1/2 * (n+1)th term
n = number of observations = 7
Median = 1/2(7+1)th term
Median = 1/2 *8 = 4th term = 17
Mean = Σx / n = (sum of ages) / number of observations
Mean = 119 / 7 = 17
