Question

The following are scores made on a math test 80,90,90,85,60,70,75,85,90,60,80. What is the median of these scores?​

Answer 1

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to write in ascending order

First we need to write in ascending order60, 60, 70, 75, 80, 80, 85, 85, 90, 90, 90

Then,

The median of the above mentioned number is

80

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given scores made on a match = 80,90,90,85,60,70,75,85,90,60,80.

here we need to find median of the given data

re-write the given data in ascending order  

60, 60, 70, 75, 80, 80, 85, 85, 90, 90, 90.

number of observations = 11  [ which is odd number ]  

If the number of observations is n and n is an odd number then

         Median of the data =  [(n+1)/2]th term

Therefore, median of the data = [(11+1)/2]th term

                                                   = 12/2 = 6th term

median of the data = 80
