You enter a prison that has many inmates of varying ages. you must interview one inmate for a research project. this inmate should be just in the middle of the age distribution of inmates-that is, an inmate who is younger than half the other inmates and older than the other half. which statistic should you use?
a) standard deviationb) meanc) mediand) mode

answer: i think the correct answer would be c.

explanation: median is the middle number of a group while mean is the average number of a group (the sum dived by the number of values there are) mode is the most frequent value (if 5 appeared 4 times in a problem while other number only appeared 1 or 2 5 would be the mode) hope this you! if you have any more questions ask.
