Answer:

if you choose mean, your score would be 78 because 81+77+79+83+70=390, divide that by 5 and you get 78, your median would be the 79, and if you choose mode, you really couldn't calculate it since there is only one of each number, therefore the best choice is the median of 79%

Answer:

Median

Explanation:

Mean: (81+77+79+83+70)/5 = 78

Median: 70, 77, 79, 81, 83

Mode: None

Therefore, the median is the better measure of central tendency you should tell your parents to make your math test scores seem highest.
