Question

find the median
32,30, 23, 25, 30,28​

Answer 1

Answer:

Arranging in an increasing order:

23, 25, 28, 30,30, 32

28 is Middle from successive and preceding numbers.

28 is median

Answer 2

$\large \sf \underline{ \underline{ \: Solution : \: \: }}$

Firstly , write the given data in ascending order , we get

23 , 25 , 28 , 30 , 30 , 32

Hence , the number of observation , n = 6 , which is even

Therefore ,

$\underline{ \: \large \fbox{ \sf Median = \frac{1}{2} \bigg(value \: of \: ( \frac{n}{2})th \: and \: (\frac{n}{2} + 1)th \: observations ) \bigg)} \: \: }$

$\sf = \frac{1}{2} (value \: of \: 3th \: term + value \: of \:4th \: term ) \\ \\ \sf = \frac{1}{2} (28 + 30) \\ \\ \sf = \frac{58}{2} \\ \\ \sf = 29$

Hence , The required median is 29
