The average (arithmetic mean) of the coordinates of the 7 labeled points on the number line is how much greater or less than the median of the coordinates of the 7 labeled points?
A. \(\frac{4}{7}\) greater
B. \(\frac{3}{7}\) greater
C. \(\frac{1}{2}\) greater
D. \(\frac{3}{7}\) less
E. \(\frac{4}{7}\) less

A and B are cancelling F and G.
So we are left with 0 1 and 2 which is 3 /7 0,42
The median is the middel value so 1. So D

A. 4/7 greater
B. 3/7 greater
C. 1/2 greater
D. 3/7 less
E. 4/7 less
Here median of 7 labelled points = middle point of these 7 points i.e = 1 on the number line
and mean of 7 labelled points = \(\frac{(-4 - 3 + 0 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 )}{7}\) \(=\)\(\frac{3}{7}\)
Hence mean is less than median = \(1-\frac{3}{7}\) \(=\) \(\frac{4}{7}\)less
Option E
