Answer:

Median

Step-by-step explanation:

  • we commonly use mean as the measure of the center of the data.
  • But Median is better measure than mean.

Extra information:-

Median formula:-


\boxed{\begin{minipage}{6cm}$\bigstar$\:\:\sf Median = l + $\sf((n)/(2)-C.f.)/(f)* h\\\\Here: \\1)\:n = \sum f =\\2)\:l=Lower\:limit\:of\:median\:class=\\3)\:C.f.=Cumulative\:frequency\:of\:class\\preceeding\:the\:median\:class=\\4)\:f= frequency\:of\:median\:class=\\5)\:h= Class\:interval = \end{minipage}}
