  • Properties of Central Measures of Tendency

    The document discusses key properties of mean, median, and mode. It states that the mean is the simplest average, based on all observations, and is affected by changes in origin and scale. The median is the most centered value, is not based on all observations, and is a better measure for open-ended classifications. The mode is the most frequent number and can have more than one value; it is not rigidly defined and does not follow mathematical properties like the other averages. All three measures can be affected by changes in origin and scale.
