Answer 2

Answer:

Median of the given data is $8$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

To find :  median of the given data .

Given data : $4,6,8,9, 11$

Solution:

• According to question we are asked to find median of the given data .
• Median is the middle number of the the observation in a sorted, ascending or descending order.
• If first arrange given data in ascending order , i.e. from smallest to biggest number .
• Ascending order : $4,6,8,9,11$
• We know that if number of observations is odd, then number in the middle of observation list is the median.
• Also, we can find the value by taking the value of $\left(\frac{n+1}{2}\right)^{\text {th }}$ term, where $n$  is the number of observation.
• In $4,6,8,9, 11$, $n=5$
• Therefore on substituting values we get,$\left(\frac{5+1}{2}\right)^{t h} =\left(\frac{6}{2}\right)^{t h} =(3)^{t h}$
• Here, $3^{r d}$ term is $8$ . Hence, median is $8$ .
• Also we can directly write $8$ as median as it is middle term.
