In a normal distribution, how are the mean, median and mode related?

AAll three differ widely
BMean is the smallest
CMode is the largest
DAll three coincide
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. All three coincide
1. A normal distribution is symmetric with a single peak. 2. The peak gives the mode and the centre gives the median. 3. By symmetry the mean sits at the same centre. So no one measure is the smallest or largest. _Source: Wikipedia, Mode (statistics), lead section_
