Answer 1

CORRECT ANSWER IS C 760

Explanation:

Answer 2

Not be confused with mean (average), the MEDIAN is the center value. The values must first be placed in order, the middle numbers is where we will get the answer. So we start with 721, 752, 760. (notice they are in order). The middle number is 752, that is the answer.
For an even number of values, for example. 4, 7, 10, 22. You would find the mean for the 2 center number.
Answer would be 7 + 10 / 2
17/2
= 8.5
