The median better describes this data set.
To find the median, we first need to arrange the data in order: 42, 43, 46, 50, 54, 57, 62, 78. Since there are 8 numbers in the data set, the median will be the average of the two middle numbers, which are 50 and 54.
Therefore, the median of this data set is (50 + 54) / 2 = 52.
