Question

find the median of the following data: 40,70,65,70,75,95,100,50

Answer 1

AO=
40,50,65,70,70,75,95,100
n=8
Median=((n/2)th+(n/2+1)th)/2
=(70+70)/2
=70

Answer 2

Arrange the given data in accending order

40, 50, 65,70,70,75,95,100

n = 8 (even)

Median = [ (n/2)th term + (n/2 +1)th term] / 2

= [ 4th term + 5th term] / 2

= (70 + 70) /2

= 140 /2

= 70
