Answer 2

$\large\sf\underline{Given}$

• Numbers = 5 , 5 , 8 , 6 , 9 , 7 , 9 , 4 and 12 .

$\large\sf\underline{To\:find}$

• Median of the numbers.

$\large\sf\underline{Solution}$

Arranging the numbers in the ascending order :

$\sf\:4\:,\:5\:,\:5\:,\:6\:,\:7\:,\:8\:,\:9\:,\:9\:,\:12$

$\sf\:Here\:number\:of\:terms=9\:which\:is\:odd$

We know,

$\small{\underline{\boxed{\mathrm\purple{Median=\frac{n+1}{2}}}}}$

$\sf\:⟹\:Median=\frac{9+1}{2}$

$\sf\:⟹\:Median=\frac{10}{2}$

$\sf\:⟹\:Median=5^{th}\:term$

$\small{\underline{\boxed{\mathrm\pink{⟹\:Median=7}}}}$
