Question

65, 46, 78, 3, 87, 12, 99, 38, 71, 38

what is the median??

Answer 1

Answer:

median = 55.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have 10 numbers which is an even number

then the median for the data set is the average of the two middle numbers

firstly ,we have to put the number of the set in order from least to greatest like this :

3 < 12 < 38 < 38 < 46 < 65 < 71 < 78 < 87 < 99

————————                     ————————-

As you can see the middle two numbers are : 46 and 65

Now, we calculate their average :

$\large \text Median = \frac{46+65}{2}= 55.5$
