Question

What is the median of the following list of num 17,20,10,19,17,13,5,4,8,17,13,4

Answer 1

...The median separates the statistical series into 2 sets of the same size

The median is the central value of a statistical series arranged in ascending order.

4 4 5 8 10 13 13 17 17 17 19 20

If the series is even, the median is the average of the 2 values around the corresponding rank:

12 values in the series

12/2 =6

we make the half-sum of the 6th and 7th values: (13+13)/2=13

The number obtained is the median of the statistical series: 13
