Answer 2

Answer : The median of the given set of data of values is, 5.5

Step-by-step explanation :

Median : It is the middle term that is sorted by the list of numbers. It is determine by placing the numbers in increasing order.

For odd observations the formula will be: $\frac{n+1}{2}$

For even observations the formula will be: $\frac{\text{Average of two middle value}}{2}$

As we are given that the set of data:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Now we have to determine the median.

For even data:

$\frac{\text{Average of two middle value}}{2}$

Middle two values are, 5 and 6

$\frac{5+6}{2}=5.5$

Thus, the median of the given set of data of values is, 5.5
