Answer:

Median

Since the data has an outlier (12,985), mean is not the best average.

This data set does not have a modal value

Therefore the best option is Median

Answer:

Explanation:

to find % of any number we will devide number by 100 and multiply to which % we want:

12985/100*6=779.1

13764.1/100*6=825.846

908.95/100*6=54.537

14023.8/100*6=841.428

779.1/100*6=46.746
