Yes, they can.
Yes, they can. In a symmetric distribution they will be the same.

In any data set are the median and mean usually very similar in value?
yes they are if you have 0 and 10 the mean is 5 and so is the median. The mean and the median can in fact be the same value. But basically to answer your question, One possible way is that if the values are ascending by 1 in the data set, then the number of values left to the median should be the same as the number of values right to the median. e.g. 6+7+8+9+10 6,7 = 2 terms 9,10 = 2 terms median =8 mode = 8
Find the mean,median,mode and range of the following values:17,7,11,13,2,12,7.?

What is the math median mean?
The MEDIAN is the number in the middle. In order to find the median, you have to put the values in order from lowest to highest, then find the number that is exactly in the middle. For example : 80 85 90 90 90 100 ^ since there is an even number of values, the MEDIAN is between these two, or it is 90. Notice that there is exactly the same number of values above the median as below it! Its that simple.
How the values of mean and median relate to shape?
The question is how do the mean and median affect the distribution shape. In a normal curve, the mean and median are both in the same point. ( as is the mode) If a distribution is skewed, its tail is either on the right or the left. If a distribution is skewed the median may be a better value to use than the mean since it has less effect on the shape. Also is there are large outliers, the median has less effect and is better to use. So the mean has a bigger effect on the shape many times than the median.
How the mean and median about the same value?
5,6,7
Is the mean and median similar?
The Mean is the average of a given set of values. The Median is the value that has the same number of smaller values than the number of higher values, it is in the middle of them. In a symmetrical distribution the Mean is equal to the Median. In an asymmetrical distribution they have different value.
Is the mean equal to the median in a data set consisting of 1000 values that are all different?
If a data set consists of 1000 different values can the mean and the median be the same
If the mean of a symmetric distribution is 130 which of these values could be the median of the distribution?
If it is a symmetric distribution, the median must be 130.
Multiple values for the same set of numbers mean median or mode?
Any set of numbers can have only one mean and only one median but it can have as many modes as it has values.
What does the maths term median mean?
It is the value of all numbers in the range in which there are as many values above it as there are below it. For example for the ordered values 1,3,7,9,10,12,15,19,21 the median value is 10. It is not he same as the mean, or average, which is the sum divided by the number of values.
Is the 50th percentile of a distribution the same as the distribution mean?
Mean = average and median = the middle value in an array of all values received. So to answer your question the 50th percentile of a distribution is the same as median.

Is the mean and median the same?
No, they are both averages but worked out in different ways and give different answers. The mean is the sum of all the values added together and then divided by the number of values there are. The median is found by arranging the values in numerical order and finding the number in the middle.
Find the mean,median,mode and range of the following values:17,7,11,13,2,12,7.?
What is the answer
Can the mean be smaller than the median for a set of data?
Yes. If the lower values tend to be farther below the median than the highest values are above the median, the mean is smaller than the median. why are write wrong
What is the median of 65 and 90?
The median of 65 and 90 is the same as their mean: 77.5The median of 65 and 90 is the same as their mean: 77.5The median of 65 and 90 is the same as their mean: 77.5The median of 65 and 90 is the same as their mean: 77.5
