Relate Measures to Distribution Shape Practice Test

A set of test scores is skewed right because a few students scored much higher than most students. Which statement best explains why the median is a better measure of center than the mean for these scores?

Six students timed how long (in seconds) it took to run a short sprint: 50, 52, 53, 54, 55, 80. The value 80 is an outlier and the distribution is skewed right. Which measures are most appropriate to describe the center and variability?
