Question

Median of the data 13,16,12,14,19,12,14,13,14 is ______? 


13

14

12

16​

Answer 1

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

Median = n/2 + 1 th term

here n= 9

.: median=9+1/2 th term

which is equal to 5 th term

Arrange the given data in ascending or descending order... then check ✔️ which is the 5th term ...

so the answer is 14 ....Hope it helps you

Answer 2

Solution!!

Observations → 13, 16, 12, 14, 19, 12, 14, 13, 14

We have to arrange these observations in ascending order.

Observations → 12, 12, 13, 13, 14, 14, 14, 16, 19

Total number of observations = 9

The formula to find the median of odd number of observations is different from the formula to find the median of even number of observations. In this case, we have to use the formula of odd number of observations.

Median = ((n + 1)/2)th term

Here n is the total number of observations.

Median = ((9 + 1)/2)th term

Median = (10/2)th term

Median = 5th term

The fifth term from the observations is 14. So, the median is also 14.

Median = 14
