Question

Here is a data set.

6, 10, 12, 7, 4, 3
What is the median of the data set?
A. 6
B. 6.5
C. 7
D.7.5

Answer 1

Answer: B) 6.5

Explanation:

To find the median of the data set, we need to arrange the numbers in order from smallest to largest:

3, 4, 6, 7, 10, 12

The median is the middle value. In this case, we have an even number of values, so we need to take the average of the two middle values:

Median = (6 + 7) / 2 = 6.5

Therefore, the answer is B. 6.5.
