Answer 1

Question:

____ is the value of the middle most item when all the items are in the order of magnitude.

(A) Mean

(B) Median

(C) Mode

(D) Range

Answer:

(B) Median is the correct answer.

Median is the value of the middle most item when all the items are in the order of magnitude.

Explanation:

Mean=> In mean we add all the observations and divide with the number of observations given.

Mode=> It is the value which occurs the most times in the list of observations.

Range=> It is the difference between the largest and smallest value from the observations given.

Observations=> 1,2,3,2,4,4,4,5

Let's arrange them in ascending or descending order,

1,2,2,3,4,4,4,5,5

Mean = (1+2+2+3+4+4+4+5+5) / 9 = 30/9 = 3.33

Mode = 4

Median = (Number of observations + 1)/2 = (9+1)/2 = 5th term which is 4

Range = Largest Number - Smallest Number = 5 - 1 = 4
