Question

find the median of the following data 40,72,66,55,45,51,79,60​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

MEDIAN is the middle observation of all observations.

first, we have to arrange the following data in ascending order

40,45,51,55,60,66,72,79

Median of even number of observation

1/2(N/2) th term + (N/2+1) th term

1/2(8/2) th term + (8/2+1) th term

57.5

hence, 57.5 is the median

Answer 2

Answer:

57.5

Step-by-step explanation:

arrange in ascending order

40,45,51,55,60,66,72,79

as numbers 8 are there

formula = sum of 4th number and 5th number /2

so 55 + 60 /2

=115/2

=57.5
