Answer 1

i would say e. the median

Answer 2

The answer is E) median.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is known that the median of a set of numbers is the number that is in the middle of the set once the numbers have been organized in descending order (this is when the data set is an odd number). When the number of data is an even number, the median will be the average of the two numbers that are in the middle of the data set, once they have already been organized.
