Question

Use the data to answer the ques 28,32,36,37,39,41,41,43,45 What is the median of the data?

Answer 1

Median = 39

Explanation:

• The median represents half of the data and 50% of the data lies above and below the median.

Step 1: Arrange the data ascending numerical order:

Since the data is already in ascending numerical order, this step is already complete.

Step 2: Find the middle of the data:

Since there are 9 data points, there will be 4 data points to the left and to the right of the median.

Since there are 4 data points to the left and to the right of 39 (i.e., 28, 32, 36, and 37 to the left, and 41, 41, 43, and 45 to the right), it's the median.
