Answer:
Median
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean
The sum of all data values divided by the total number of data values.
[tex]\implies \textsf{Mean}=\dfrac{120+71+80+14+90+117}{6}=82[/tex]
Median
The middle value when all data values are placed in order of size.
If there are an even number of data values, the median is the mean of the middle 2 data values.
Ordered data values: 14, 71, 80, 90, 117, 120
[tex]\implies \textsf{Median}=\dfrac{80+90}{2}=85[/tex]
Therefore, as 85 > 82, the Median gives James the highest average score.
