(N/A) No,it is not true to say that the mean,mode,and median of grouped data will always be different.
These three measures of central tendency can be the same depending on the nature of the data.
For example,in a perfectly symmetrical distribution (such as a normal distribution),the mean,median,and mode are equal.
Therefore,the values of these three measures depend entirely on the distribution of the data.
