which measure of central tendency is most affected by extreme values?
mean
median
mode
range

Explanation:

The mean is calculated by summing all values and dividing by the count of values. Extreme values (outliers) significantly alter the total sum, thus heavily impacting the mean. The median is the middle value, so outliers do not shift it. The mode is the most frequent value, which is unaffected by outliers. Range is a measure of spread, not central tendency.

Answer:

Mean
