Question

What is the median of the data set?
3,10,1, 6, 10,3,11,14

Answer 1

The median is 8. You have to arrange it and then since it’s an even number add the two middle numbers and divide by 2.

Answer 2

The median is 8

Step-by-step explanation

The given date set is 3,10,1, 6, 10,3,11,14

We rearrange the data set in ascending order of magnitude to get:

1,3,3,6,10,10,11,14

There are two numbers {6,10} in the middle of the data set after arranging in ascending order.

The median is the mean of thesecond two numbers.

The median is

`(6 + 10)/(2) = (16)/(2) = 8`

Therefore the median is 8
