A coach would like to know the total number of points a team scored in a 15-game season. What measure of central tendency would provide the coach with the additional information needed to make this determination? (mean, median, mode or range)…..I know it should be the mean….but why? Thank you!
Please help me to understand this simple statistic question.

Please post the formula for the mean and consider whether we can use it to calculate total points.
