Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

Given numbers :-

⇒ 176, 231, 247, 256, 272, 299, 325, 343, 366, 375

⇒ Median = 272 + 299 / 2 = 285.5

⇒ Mean = 2890/10 = 289

(a) median if 375 becomes 265

⇒ 176, 231, 247, 256, 265, 272, 299, 325, 343, 366

⇒ New median = 265 + 272 / 2 = 268.5

⇒ Decreases by 17

(b) mean if 375 becomes 265

⇒ New mean = 2890 - 110 / 10 = 2780/10 = 278

⇒ Decreases by 11
