hi.......i think 15 is the median becoz all studenrs marks are based on above 15 and below 15......

Answer 2

Answer:  A) Median

Step-by-step explanation:

Median is the value that separates the higher half from the lower half of a data sample.

Mean is the average or central value of a data.

Frequency is the number of occurrences of a repeating event in a data.

Mode is the value of a data that is repeated more or which has the higher frequency.

Here, 15 divides the data in two equal parts.

⇒ 15 is the median of the given data.

⇒ Option A is correct.
