Which measure of center would be most appropriate?
Mode

None of these

No measure of center would have the right information.?We only care about the value that occurs the most frequently.?
We are looking for the middle value, but want to ignore outliers.?
We want to take into account all data points, even outliers.?

Median

We are looking for the middle value, but want to ignore outliers

Step-by-step explanation:

The two measures of center tendency fit for this question are the mean and the median.

Though the mean which is also known as average is considered to be the most popular and well known measure of central tendency. But one main disadvantage of mean is its susceptibility to the influence of outliers.

Outliers are the values in a data set that are too small or too large which may eventually affect the statistical results. Because of this, the best centre of measure to use for the determination of the amount of tax collected per person will be median. Because we are looking for the middle value and want to ignore outliers.

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 80 and 15, then divide by 100 to get 80% of 15 which is 12.
