Question

Find the median of prime numbers between 1 and 50

Answer 1

Answer:

The median of prime numbers between 1 to 50 =  19

Step-by-step explanation:

To find,

The median of the prime numbers between 1 and 50

Solution:

Recall the concept:

Median is middle most value when the observations are arranged in the ascending order

Prime numbers are the numbers greater than 1,which cannot be expressed as the product of two natural numbers less than the given number.

The prime numbers between 1 and 50 are

2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47

There are 15 prime numbers between 1 and 50.

The median of this set is the 8th value when arranged these values in ascending order

These set of values are in ascending order and the 8th value is 19.

Hence the median of prime numbers between 1 and 50 = 19

Answer 2

Answer:

The median of prime numbers between 1 to 50 is 19

Step-by-step explanation:

To Find :

We have to find the median of prime numbers between 1 to 50

Solution :

Since we know that if we arrange given numbers in increasing form or decreasing form then the middle term is called the median.

So get the median we first have to arrange prime numbers between 1 to 50

There prime numbers between 1 to 50 are

2 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 11 , 13 , 17 , 19 , 23 , 29 , 31 , 37 ,41 , 43 , 47

Since above written prime numbers are already in the increasing form.

There are 15 prime numbers between 1 and 50

so the median is = (n+1)/2 th term

Here n = 15

so the median = $\frac{15+1}{2}$ th term

                        = 8 th term

So the median of prime numbers between 1 to 50 is 19
