The new median of the data is 22

Given:

The median of the data is 20.  Each item is increased by 2  

To find:

The new median  

Solution:

Properties of Median:

• The median of data is a numerical value that lies in the position of the center in data when the data is arranged in ascending or descending order.  
• The median is an independent value and is not affected by external values.
• When a value 'x' is added to each observation in given data then the median of the data will be (initial median + x). Similarly when a value 'x' is subtracted from each term then the median of the data will be (initial median - x).

Given the median of the data = 20

Each item is increased by 2

The new median of the new data = Initial median + 2

=  20 + 2 = 22

Therefore,

The new median of the data is 22
