Answer:

Median

Explanation:

Our set of numbers: 20, 60, 18, 38, 60, 14

Order: 14, 18, 20, 38, 60, 60

Mean: (14 + 18 + 20 + 38 + 60 + 60) / 6 = 210 / 6 = 35

Median: (20 + 38) / 2 = 29

Mode: 60 - 14 = 46

The number 18 replaced one of the 60s in the set.

Order: 14, 18, 18, 20, 38, 60

Mean: (14 + 18 + 18 + 20 + 38 + 60) / 6 = 28

Median: (18 + 20) / 2 = 19

Mode: 60 - 14 = 46

So, the median value changes the most if the number 18 replaces one of the 60s in the set.
