the mean is the average of all the salaries an the the median is the number that falls in the middle
The median is the middle number when the numbers are listed in order; if there is an even number of numbers, the median is the mean of the middle two. 35,380 - two numbers - two is even, therefore median is the mean of the middle two, ie the mean of 35 and 380: median = (35 + 380) ÷ 2 = 207.5
To find the median of an even number of values, you need to take the mean of the 2 middle numbers. Since there is only 2 numbers, take the mean to find the median. The median is (500 + 1M)/2 = 500250.
The mean is affected the most by an outlier.
