Question

What will be the Median value of the following series ?12, 17, 16, 13, 19, 23, 22.​

Answer 1

Answer:

14

Explanation:

We use the basic concepts of statistics such as median and mode to solve the question.

Mode = Mode is the observation that occurs highest number of times

Median = Median is the middle observation

Given data = 13, 16, 12, 14, 19, 12, 14, 13, 14

Arranging the data in ascending order, we get

12, 12, 13, 13, 14, 14, 14, 16, 19.

Mode is the observation that occurs highest number of times.

14 occurs three times in the given data.

∴ Mode = 14  

Also, median is the middle observation.

Out of the 9 observations given, the mid data is the 5th value.

∴ Median = 14
