The scores on an exam are listed. If a teacher wants to explain how poorly the class did on the test, would she use the mean, median, or mode value for the test scores? Scores: 31, 33, 50, 55, 58, 58, 58, 60, 61, 61, 71, 73, 99, 100

Mean

Median

Mode

It makes no difference, they are all the same value.

Mean because the mean is an average. That gives an overall understanding of what the entire class did.
