Question

what is the median of 22,40,60,80​

Answer 1

Now:

First step: Arrange in ascending order which has conveniently been done here lol:

22,40,60,80

S2: Now there are 4 observations here. Therefore to find median, we need to use the formula:

$\frac{(\frac{n}{2})^{th} observation + (\frac{n}{2} + 1)^{th} observation }{2} \\= \frac{2^{nd} observation + 3^{rd} observation}{2}\\ = \frac{40+60}{2}\\ =\frac{100}{2}\\ = 50$

Hope this helped

Answer 2

Answer:

First arrange the numbers in ascending order,

#if the total numbers in the given set is odd , middle number is the median of that set.

#if the total numbers in the given set is even, the average of middle two numbers is the median.

here

22,40,60,80

Total number in the set is 4 ie even and so average of middle numbers is the median

i.e 22, (40,60) ,80

median = (40+60)/2

= (100)/2

= 50.

so 50 is the answer.
