Question

if the median of x/5,x/4,x/2,x,x/3 is 8 (x>0),then find the value of x​

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of x is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Median is the middle value of the observations/data.

So, if we arrange the given data in ascending order,

we get,

(x/5) , (x/4) , (x/3) , (x/2) , x

Since the no. of observations is odd,

The median is ((n+1)/2)th term ,i.e, The 3rd term

Therefore,

median is x/3

x/3 = 8

x = 24

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. is the observations are even then the median is average of n/2 and n/2+1. average of x/4+x/2 then 3x/8 equals to 8
