Question

The median of 8, 20,50,25, 15,30 is
please explain​

Answer 1

Answer:

22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

so how do you find  the median if u have even numbers??hmmm

i gotcha

soo

1. u have to arrange the numbers in ascending order                                                           i.e : 8,15,20,25,30,50
2. now you gotta select the two numbers in the middle                                         i.e : 20&25

• lastly,u gotta find the average/mean of 20&25                                              i.e : 20+25/2    = 22.5

hope u got this

please rate me well....wanna help and new to this app

Answer 2

Given: 8, 20, 50, 25, 15, 30

To find: The median of 8, 20, 50, 25, 15, 30.

Solution:

For any given set of data, the median is the value of its middle term. In order to find the median of any ungrouped data, first, the observations are arranged in ascending order.

$8, 15, 20, 25, 30, 50$

If the number of observations is even, the following formula is used to find the median of the given data.

$\frac{1}{2} [(\frac{n}{2})^{th} term + (\frac{n}{2} + 1)^{th} term]$

Here, n is the number of observations which is 6 in the given question.

$\frac{1}{2} [(\frac{6}{2})^{th} term + (\frac{6}{2} + 1)^{th} term]$

$= \frac{1}{2} [(3^{th} term + 4^{th} term]$

Now, the third and the fourth term from the arranged observations must be substituted to find the median of the given data.

$= \frac{1}{2} [20 + 25]$

$= 22.5$

Therefore, the median of 8, 20, 50, 25, 15, 30 is 22.5.
