    Yes. The use of the mean as the average is why you can’t tell without looking at the data set if the average of $500 is 1000 people all making around $500 or 500 people making near nothing while the other 500 are making close to $1000 or 750 are making near nothing and 250 making close to $2000, etc…

    In this case the mode gives you a more relevant data set. That’s probably not what they’re using though.

    The best would probably a range of modes and the quantity of people in each bucket
