Question

Which one of the following measures is the most suitable one of central locations for computing intelligence of students?
A. Mode
B. A.M.
C. G.M.
D. Median

Answer 1

Hint: Observe the given options and write the purposes of the given options and then identify the correct one.

Complete step by step solution: A. Mode is used to obtain the observation that is repeated maximum time.
B. A.M is used to obtain the average of numbers.
C. G.M is used to obtain the geometric mean of the numbers.
Therefore, the most suitable central location for computing the intelligence of students is the median.

Option ‘D’ is correct

Additional Information: Mode: The mode of data is the observation whose frequency is maximum.
The full form of A.M. is the arithmetic mean. The arithmetic mean is calculated to find the average of the given data that divides the sum of all observations by the number of observations of the data.
The full form of G.M. is the geometric mean. The geometric mean is calculated by multiplying all n numbers and taking the nth square root of the product.
Median: Median is the central observation of the data. It lies in the middle of the data when the data arranges ascending or descending.

Note: Sometimes we can use the elimination method to answer a question, in this question we have eliminated our three options to get the right option.
