Mastering Data Analysis with Python Pandas

# Problem Statement

This challenge consists of a few steps. 

1.  We have a `DataFrame` called `grocery`, which contains some missing values in the `price` column. We need to fill them in with the average price of the product. For example, a missing price value for a tomato needs to be filled in with the average price of tomatoes.

2. Then, we need to create a column called `day_of_week` by extracting the day-of-week information from the `sales_date` column. Make sure to convert the data type of the `sales_date` column to `datetime64[ns]`.

3. The final step is to calculate the average sales quantity on each day of the week. We need to sort the values in descending order and select the index of the first value to find the day of the week with the most sales.
