The mass of five meteorites found on earth are 23.5 kg, 15 kg, 20 kg, 22 kg and 16 kg. For this data, which of the following measures is 19.3 kg?

The masses of the meteorites are: 23.5 kg, 15 kg, 20 kg, 22 kg, and 16 kg.

Mean: The average of the values.

Median: The middle value when the data is ordered.

Mode: The most frequently occurring value.

Mean Deviation: The average absolute deviation from the mean.

Mean:

​$$\text{Mean} = \frac{23.5 + 15 + 20 + 22 + 16}{5} = \frac{96.5}{5} = 19.3 \text{ kg}$$​​

Median: Order the values: 15, 16, 20, 22, 23.5. The middle value is 20 kg.

Mode: There is no mode as all values are unique.

Thus, The correct answer is option(C): Mean.
