My apologies for the confusion. Let me provide a more accurate answer:

The median value of 50 is the best measure of center that describes the shape of the data set.

I apologize for the error in my previous responses.

Since the data set is fairly evenly distributed and does not seem to have any outliers, both the mean and median would be good measures of central tendency to describe the shape of the data set. Therefore, both the mean value of 52 and the median value of 50 would be suitable measures in this case.
