Question

Find the median age of 10, 6, 8, 19, 12, 8, 10, 18, 19, 15

Answer 1

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

The median of a set of numbers:

The median of a set of numbers is the set of numbers listed in order and the value that lies in the middle of the set is the median of the set.

If there are n numbers in a set:

1) If 'n' is odd, the middle value is the median.

2) If 'n' is even, the average of the two middle values is the median.

Given set of numbers;

10, 6, 8, 19, 12, 8, 10, 18, 19, 15

Set of the given ages listed in order:

6, 8, 8, 10, 10, 12, 15, 18, 19, 19

n = 10(even)

Therefore, the median age = (5th number + 6th number)/2

                         = (10 + 12)/2

                         = 22/2 = 11
