The measure of the central tendency are mean, median and the mode and each of them is explained.

Explanation of Solution

The measure of the central tendency are mean, median and the mode.

Consider the expression for the mean is,

  $\overline{X}=\frac{1}{n}{\displaystyle \sum _{i=1}^n{X}_i}$

The median of the data set is the central value when there are two middle values, then it is the mean of the two middle values.

Consider the mode is set of the data of the most frequent value and for some set of data their multiple modes have no modes.
