of 8,15,23,14,6,8,3,16, 15 and 8​

Answer 1

Answer:

8is 2 15 is 3 23 is 12 14 is 7 6 is 3

Answer 2

Answer:

14.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Data : 8,15,23,14,6,8,3,16,15,18

Arranging the data in ascending order :

3,6,8,814,15,15,16,18,23

Then ,

They are even in numbers so ,

Median =

\begin{gathered}\frac{ \frac{n}{2}th + (\frac{n}{2} + 1 )th}{2} \\ \\ \frac{ \frac{10}{2}th + (\frac{10}{2} + 1) th}{2} \\ \\ \frac{5 \: th+ 6 \: th}{2}\end{gathered}

5 th term = 14

6 th term = 15

\frac{14 + 15}{2} = \frac{29}{2} = 14.5
