Given,
Series in ascending order : 1,2,2,3,x,3,4,5,6
Total observation = 9
Median = 3
To Find,
Value of x =?
Solution,
We know that the median is the middle-most value of the series.
The series is already in ascending order and the total observations are 9 which is an odd number. So, the median for an odd number is
Median = (n+1)/2th observation
Median = (9+1)/2 = 5
Median = Number present at 5th position
Median = x = 3 [Median is given in question]
Therefore, x= 3
Hence, the value of x is 3.
