Answer 2

Given,

(a) 27,39,49,20,21,28,38.

(b) 10,19,54,80,15,16

To Find,

Find the median

Solution,

Median simply means when you find the middle value for a set of data around which your data resolves. The step to find the median is through arranging the data in ascending order. After they are arranged just pick the middle value. If there are two middle values then the sum of them divided by 2 will be the medium.

Using this for

27,39,49,20,21,28,38 median will be 28.

10,19,54,80,15,16 median will be 17.5

Hence, the median will be 28 and17.5 respectively.
