उत्तर
Mean = `"Sum of all observations"/"Total number of observations"`
∴ `68 = (45 + 52 + 60 + x + 69 + 70 + 26 + 81 + 94)/9`
`=> 68 = (497 + x)/9`
`=>` 612 = 497 + x
`=>` x = 612 – 497
`=>` x = 115
Data in ascending order
26, 45, 52, 60, 69, 70, 81, 94, 115
Since the number of observations is odd, the median is the `((n + 1)/2)^(th)` observation
`=>` Median = `((9 + 1)/2)^(th)` observation = 5th observation.
Hence, the median is 69
