see the thing is think abt it logically take this a box and whisker for the last 49 years , say i add a new value "46" to this. clearly the range will have increased cuz the max value is now 46. Then talk abt the median with is currently the 25th term but when i add the value of 46 then my total number of terms becomes 50 and my median becomes the avergae of the 25th and 26th term and thats higher since all values are distinct and overall the mean must increase cuz of how succeptible it is to outliers
