Question

The ages of students in a class have been put into the frequency distribution below. age number of students 18 3 19 5 20 28 21 4 what is the median age of these students?

Answer 1

Median: put all the numbers in chronological order. The median is the middle number. If it is an even set of numbers, and there are two middle numbers, average the two numbers.

Chronological Order:
3 4 5 18 19 20 21 28

Median:
18 + 19= 37
take the average of the 2 middle #s
37 ÷ 2= 18.5

Median= 18.5

Hope this helps! :)
