The houses on a city block were thought to be valued at $184,000, $153,000,

$191,000, $145,000, $200,000, $ 192,000, and $149,000, respectively, but a
public assessor has determined that they were all undervalued by $15,000.
According to the public assessor, what is the median value of the houses?

Answer:

$199,000.

Explanation:

Arranging the values in ascending order:

$145,000, $149,000 $153,000, $184,000, $191,000, $192,000,$200,000.

The median (middle) value is $184,000 so according to the assessor the median value is $184,000 + $15,000

= $199,000.
