Question

What is the median of 11,17,7,6,7,4,15,9

Answer 1

Median = 8

Explanation:

Let us first arrange the data in ascending order.

4,6,7,7,9,11,15,17

As there are eight entries hence the median will be the average of the 4th and 5th data.

4th entry : 7

5th entry : 9

Average = (7+9)/2

= 8

Hence the median is 8
