The 3 M's!

After reviewing my graph, I have calculated the mean, median, and mode number of Francs my friends have. The mode, or most common, was 10, which 8 people had. The median was 12 Francs, which was my middle value. And by finding the average, I calculated that the mean was 21.5 francs. I think this is so high, because when I asked Paolo Pinto, he had 150 chf in his wallet, and was a clear outlier. Overall, I think that the mode is the best representation of my data, because most students had at or near 10 chf.
