Answer 1

Answer:

Zero (0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between the mean and the median is zero since the mean and the median of the sequence are the same.

Check

Given the arithmetic sequence: 4,6,8,10,12

$Mean=(4+6+8+10+12) \div 5 =40 \div 5=8\\Median =8\\ Difference of Mean and Median= 8 - 8 = 0$
