Can anyone give the applications of mean, median, and mode in real life?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, there are so many applications to them in real life.. I will give one: assume there are 6 students in your math class, and the scores of your first exam were as follows ( out of 100): 90, 80, 100, 70,60, 90

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the mean is just the sum of all the scores divided by the number of students. the median is the middle value in the ordered list. and the mode is the score that occurs the most.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does that make sense to you?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, but how can we say the appropriate measure?
