Question

The ascending order of the marks of 9 th class students is 34,37,42,x-2,x,49,50.If the median is 45 find the value of x

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 47

Step-by-step explanation:

ATP : (x-2) is smaller then x, and is placed in the middle of the series. And there is no 45 in the series.

So:

34,37,42,x-2,x,49,50

(x-2) remains. So (x-2) = 45. Hence x = (45+2 = 47)
