Question

Find median of 12,15,20,14​

Answer 1

Answer:

12+15+20+14÷4=15.25

Answer 2

Answer:

The median of the data set is 14.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: $12,15,20,14$

We have to find the median of the above data set.

• As we know that the median is the middle number in a sorted list of numbers.
• So, to find the median, we need to place the numbers in value order and find the middle number.

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

The given data set is$12,15,20,14$.

The median of the above data set will be:

Ordering the data from least to greatest, we get:

$12 , 14 , 15 , 20$

As we can see, we do not have just one middle number but, we have a pair of middle numbers, so the median is the average of these two numbers:

$\text { Median }=\frac{14+15}{2}\\\\\text { Median }=\frac{29}{2} \\\\\text { Median }=14.5$
