Question

Find the median of the following data (1-8)

41, 43, 127, 99, 71, 92, 71, 58, 57

Answer 1

Given numbers are 41, 43, 127, 99, 71, 92, 71, 58, 57
Arrange in increasing order
41, 43, 57, 58, 71, 71, 92, 99, 127
9 = n (odd)

∴ Median = `((n+ 1)^(th))/2 value`

              = `((9+1)/2)^(th) value `

              = `5^(th)value`

               = 71
