Answer #1

Data Summary:

4th Grade (Class 1) 4th Grade (Class 2)
Mean 32.962 29.346
Median 32.500 29.000
Mode 22.000 22.000
Std. Deviation 11.807 11.940

We know that:

As we can see both of the data sets above are slightly right-skewed and thus the best measure of central tendency would be median though mean can also be used as the skew is not too aggressive.
