You'd probably be wanting to find the average of something, like the average amount of snowfall every year (i wish it would snow more often here). I'm not sure why you'd need to use medians in your life.

mean is the average of numbers in the data set mode is the most frequently occurring value in a data set and median is the middle number of the data set so you would use mean
When would you use the mean rather than the median and the mode?
Mean is the average you add all the numbers and divide the total by the number of numbers that you added. you would use it rather thank median and mode basically when it asks you to find the mean or to find the average
When might you want to use the median to describe the center of a data set instead of then mean?
You would use the median if the data were very skewed, with extreme values.
Why would you use median instead of mean?
You would use median instead of mean because the median doesn't find the average, it finds the middle value. Even if its not the middle of the range (the exact middle value between the lowest number and the highest number) it still is near to the middle value. The mean finds the average of all the numbers, like when a teacher average's her students' grades. Median is better to use when finding the middle value, not the average.
