Answer:

Mean

Explanations:

The measure of central tendency is the value that best describes a data set.

The measure of central tendency can be the mean, mode, and median

Note that:

the best measure of central tendency is the mean

In this exercise, since we are given the data values and the frequency of occurence, the measure of center that best describes the set of data in the table is the mean (Average)
