Question

A large construction company wants to review the ages of its sales representatives. A sampling of the ages of 25 sales reps are given: 50 42 32 35 41 44 24 46 31 47 36 32 30 44 22 47 31 56 28 37 49 28 42 38 45 The following histogram is a representation of the data. Calculate the median ages

Answer 1

What you have to do to find the median of the data is first put that data into order numerically. You can go largest to smallest or smallest to largest, it doesn't matter.   

22, 24, 28, 28, 30, 31, 31, 32, 32, 35, 36, 37, 38, 41, 42, 42, 44, 44, 45, 46, 46, 47, 47, 49, 50

Once you put them into order, you count towards the middle. You have 25 data points, so the middle, which will be your median number, will be 13 points in. 

The median is 38

Answer 2

The average age that a large construction company wants to know is 38

How is the average calculated?

Mean This is the arithmetic mean and is calculated by adding a group of numbers and dividing by the count of those numbers. For example, the average of 2, 3, 3, 5, 7, and 10 is 30 divided by 6, which is 5.

Given the values:

• 50
• 42
• 32
• 35
• 41
• 44
• 24
• 46
• 31
• 47
• 36
• 32
• 30
• 44
• 22
• 47
• 31
• 56
• 28
• 37
• 49
• 28
• 42
• 38
• 45

We have that:

$(22+ 24+28+ 28+ 30+ 31+ 31+ 32+ 32+ 35+ 36+ 37+ 38+ 41+ 42+ 42+ 44+ 44+ 45+ 46+ 46+ 47+ 47+ 49+ 50) /25 = 37.88$

The median will be aproximally 38.
