Answer:

Mean

Explanation:

Our set of numbers: 50, 47, 85, 98, 35, 35, 33, 31, 27, 29

Order: 27, 29, 31, 33, 35, 35, 47, 50, 85, 98

Mean: (27+ 29 + 31 + 33 + 35 + 35 + 47 + 50 + 85 + 98) / 10 = 47

Median: (35 + 35) / 2 = 35

Mode: 35

If the number 41 were added to the set

Order: 27, 29, 31, 33, 35, 35, 41, 47, 50, 85, 98

Mean: 511 / 11 = 46.45

Median: 35

Mode: 35

So, the mean will be the value change the most if the number 41 were added to the set.
