Question

The median of 101 observations, which are arranged in increasing order, is 51.5. If each of the last 50 observations is incremented by 2 and each of the first 50 observations is decremented by 1 then the median of the new set of observations is _____.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

its observation according to your question is undefined

Answer 2

Answer:

The median will remain the same i.e. 51.5

Step-by-step explanation:

• Median is defined as the statistical measure which is the middle term of the observations.
• For the odd number of observations, the Median is the middle term while the median for the even number of observations is the mean of the middle two observations arranged in ascending or descending order.
• Number of observations=101
• The middle observation is 51 term.
• Median of the observatio=51.5
• There will be no change in the median if the number of observation or the middle term does not change.
