Question

Find the median of the scores 75, 21, 56, 36, 81,05, 42​

Answer 1

The median of the score is 42.

Given : Scores - 75,21,56,36,81,05,42.

To find : The median of the scores?

Solution :

First we arrange in ascending order,

05, 21, 36, 42, 56, 75, 81

There are odd numbers i.e. 7

So, The median of the scores is (\frac{n+1}{2})^{th}(

2

n+1

)

th

term

i.e. (\frac{7+1}{2})^{th}=4^{th}(

2

7+1

)

th

=4

th

term

Therefore, The median of the score is 42.
