Question

The average number of emails received each day by two groups of people is shown below:

Group A: 5, 2, 200, 2, 2, 1, 2, 4, 1, 4, 4
Group B: 4, 2, 1, 1, 2, 5, 2, 2, 4, 4, 5

Which statement best describes the mean and median of the data shown above?

Answer 1

The median number of emails received by people of Group A is higher because of the absence of an outlier.

The median number of emails received by people of Group B is higher because of the presence of an outlier.

The mean number of emails received by people of Group B is higher because of the absence of an outlier.

The mean number of emails received by people of Group A is higher because of the presence of an outlier.

Answer 3

IS it like this?

\(\normalsize\color{black}{ \bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~day~1 ~~~~~day~2~~~~~~day~3,~~~~~ ...}\)
\(\normalsize\color{black}{ \bf Group A: ~~~~~5,~~~~~~~~~~2,~~~~~~~~~~ 200~....}\)
\(\normalsize\color{black}{ \bf Group B: ~~~~~4,~~~~~~~~~~~2,~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1~....}\)

Right ?

Answer 4

yup.

Answer 5

I am tired to count the medians and means, but find median and mean (yes, it is the job of an asker) for group A and B to see which one is higher.
