well because in the mean you have to add them and its different from the median and the mode
Median
The answer depends on the type of data. The mean or median are useless if the data are qualitative (categoric): only the mode is any use. The median is better than the mean is the data are very skewed.

Yes. Central tendency is the way data clusters around a value. Even if the distribution of the value is skewed, the median would be the best indicator of central tendency because of the way the data is clustered.

The median in a set of data, would be the middle item of the data string... such as: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 the Median of this set of data would be: 4
BAR ;)
The median is the "middle" number in a set of data or a sequence. If you have the sequence 2,3,4,5,6 4 would be the median.

The median must be at least as great as the first quartile in any data set. Normally it would be greater.The median must be at least as great as the first quartile in any data set.

Median is only meaningful with a set of data. The median of five would just be five. Similar to asking what the average of 5 is.
You would use the median if the data were very skewed, with extreme values.
