Best Answer

mean is the average of a set of values
mean = sum of values divided by the number of values


median = middle value of a set when arranged from low to high

example: 2,4,6,7,8,9, 13,
mean = (2+4+6+7 + 8+ 9+13)/7 = 7
median = 7 ( number in the middle)

example

2,2,3,5,6

mean = (2+2+3+5+6)/5 = 3.6
median = 3
