Medium vs Moderate vs average
What are the difference between medium, average and moderate, when I check the dictionary it seems similar or almost same. So anyone please explain the differences?

Medium - the middle of two extremes for example: small, medium, large
Average - the result of adding different quantities together and then dividing by the number of quantities. for example: 4+6+12+23 = 45 / 4 (total amount of different numbers) = 11.25 is the average
Moderate - average in intensity, amount, quality or degree for example: We walked at a moderate pace. (not too fast or too slow)

Medium means in the middle. It is often used in the context of temperature or size. For example, some shirt sizes are small, medium, and large.
Average means normal. If I have an average exam score, that means that my score is like everyone else's. Also, if I have a mother, a father, and a brother, you could say that I live in an average family.
Moderate means not extreme. If a day is neither hot nor cold, you could say that it has moderate temperatures. If my political views are neither on one side nor the other, you could say that I am politically moderate.
