Answer:

median

Explanation:

the median would make the score as good as possible, because there could be possible outliers. this really depends on if there are outliers or not. here is an example of what i need:

say you are trying to show your parents your grades:

here are your scores:

38, 88, 90, 91, 93, 95, 100

the median would be 91, which looks better.

the mean would be 85.

even though a majority of your grades are good, the one 38 makes the average go down. therefore, the median is a better advertiser.
