In an unbalanced, skewed, distribution which measure of central tendency is least biased? Correct Answer Range

In an unbalanced, skewed, distribution measure of range of central tendency is least biased.
A measure of central tendency is a summary measure that attempts to describe a whole set of data with a single value that represents the middle or centre of its distribution. It is a central or typical value for a probability distribution.
