60 34
52 40
50 36
48 38
53 41

52 40
60 39
Based on these data, is it better to describe the centers of distribution in terms of the mean or the median? Explain.
A . Mean for both bakeries because the data is symmetric
B. Mean for Bakery B because the data is symmetric; median for Bakery A because the data is not symmetric
C. Mean for Bakery A because the data is symmetric; median for Bakery B because the data is not symmetric
D. Median for both bakeries because the data is not symmetric
