The answer should be 2! I just lined the numbers up numerically and counted to the middle, which lands between the two 2s, making 2 the median.

Answer: The median number of cakes sold each day =2


Explanation:

We know that the median is the middle number in a data set that is arranged in ascending order.

To find the median of the given dot plot , we need to write the values of dot in ascending order an then underline same number of terms from the both sides, the middle number which left without underline will be the median odf the given problem.

0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 3 3 4 4 4 5 5 6 9

Here, the middle number is 2.

Thus median=2

Hence, the median number of cakes sold each day =2
