Question

In a cricket match, 11 players scored runs as follows: 6,15, 120, 50, 100, 80, 10, 15, 8,10,15. Find the Median

Answer 1

Solution :

Given 11 players runs :

6,15,120,50,100,80,10,15,8,10,15

Arranging scores in ascending order,

6,8,10,10,15,15,15,50,80,100,120

Number of terms ( n ) = 11 ( odd )

median = ( n + 1 )/2 th term

= ( 11 + 1 )/2 th term

= 12/2 th term

= 6 th term

= 15

Therefore ,

median = 15

Answer 2

Answer :

15

Step - by - Step explanation :

No of players = 11

Now, arranging the runs scored by them in ascending order, we get ;

6 , 8 , 10 , 10 , 15 , 15 , 15 , 50 , 80 , 100 , 120

Here, n = 11 ( odd )

Median = $\sf \frac{n + 1}{2}$

Median = $\sf \frac{11 + 1}{2}$

Median = 12 / 2

Median = 6 th term.

Hence , the value of 6th term is 15.
