That’s not necessarily true. If 100 people take a test and 99 of them score 100 but one person gets a 0, the average score is 99. But 99 people scored 100, so 99 people are above average, and only 1 is below average.
Well of course it’s not gonna be true when you make up an incredibly unlikely contrived scenario that doesn’t follow anything close to a normal distribution

Technically correct is best correct.
Well of course it’s not gonna be true when you make up an incredibly unlikely contrived scenario that doesn’t follow anything close to a normal distribution
that generally doesn’t happen in the real world though, most of the time the mean and median are close-ish at least
99 of them would then be average and the one person would be below average
The average is 99.
99 people scored 100. They’re above average.
