Question

Write the median of the data 15, 40, 40, 25, 16, 28, 32, 36, 42, 16, 19, 28,​

Answer 1

Answer:

Median = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Median : The median is the middle most value of the given data.

The given data is 15,40,25,16,28,32,36,42.16.19.

There are 10 numbers in given data.

Therefore, the middle values of the given data are 18 and 32

And if there 2 middle values in the given data then we should,

do the sum of the two middle values / 2

Therefore, if we take the middle values as a and b then the formula will be,

Median = ( a + b ) ÷ 2

Then here the median will be

= 28 + 32 ÷ 2

= 60 ÷ 2

= 30

Therefore, the median of the given data 30

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

15,16,16,19,25,28,28,32,36,40,40,42

Median = 1/2 (n/2 term + (n/2)÷2 term)

n/2 = 12÷2 = 6 term = 28

n+2/2 = 12+2/2 = 14÷2 = 7 term = 28

= 1/2 (28+28)

= 1/2 (56)

Median = 28
