Question

Find the median of the given values : 47, 53, 62, 71, 83, 21, 43, 47, 41

Answer 1

Arrange the values in ascending order we get

21, 41, 43, 47, 47, 53, 62, 71, 83

The number of values = 9 which is odd

Median = `((9 + 1)/2)^"th"` variable

= `(10/2)^"th"` variable

= 5^th variable

∴ Median = 47
