$2, $15, and $2. When placing an ad in the local paper, which

The measure of the central tendency of the local paper can be mean, median or mode

The local paper should use the median as the measure of the central tendency

How to determine the measure of central tendency

The dataset is given as:

$2, $3, $2, $15, and $2

Rearrange the dataset

$2, $2, $2, $3, $15

In the above dataset, $15 is relatively larger than the other dataset

This means that:

$15 is an outlier of the dataset

Median is not affected by outlier, while mean is affected by outliers

Hence, the local paper should use the median as the measure of the central tendency
