Answer:

51.5

Explanation:

You want the median of the data set {55, 44, 40, 55, 48, 44, 58, 67}.

Median

There are an even number of elements in the set of data, so the median will be the average of the middle two.

Sorted into increasing order, the data set is ...

{40, 44, 44, 48, 55, 55, 58, 67}

The middle two elements are (48, 55). Their average is ...

median = (48 +55)/2 = 103/2 = 51.5

The median of the data is 51.5.
