The histogram shows the distribution of the annual hours of commuting delay per traveler for 46 small and medium urban areas, fewer than one million in population. The histogram shows hours at the horizontal axis from 5 to 50 with intervals of 5. It represents frequency on the vertical axis from 0 to 10 with intervals of 5. It is a right skewed graph that shows the highest frequency in the interval 10 to 15, and there is an overall fall in the frequency with the increase in hours. The lowest frequency is 2, which is displayed in the intervals 5 to 10, and 45 to 50. The frequency for several other hours intervals is given as follows: frequency 9 in 15 to 20 interval, frequency 8 in 20 to 25 interval, frequency 5 in 25 to 30 interval, frequency 4 in 30 to 35 interval, and frequency 3 in the intervals 35 to 40 and 40 to 45. Which of the following must be true? The mean is less than the median. The mean is greater than the median. The mean is the same as the median.
