Question

Find the median of 92,35,67,85,72,81,56,51

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we should arrange the numbers in ascending order.

Ascending order=35,51,56,67,72,81,85,92

No. of observations=8

So the middle terms=(8/2)th and (8/2 +1)th terms

=4th term and 5th term

=67 and 72

mean=(67+72)/2

=139/2

=69.5

Hence, the median is 69.5

Answer 2

Answer:

The median of the given data will be 69.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: $92,35,67,85,72,81,56,51$

We have to find the median of the above data.

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

$92,35,67,85,72,81,56,51$

• 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.

Ordering the data from least to greatest, we get:

$35, 51 , 56 , 67 , 72 , 81 , 85 , 92$

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:

$\text { Median }=>\frac{67+72}{2}=>69.5$
