Question

Find the median of the following data set.

0.48, 0.66, 1.02, 0.82, 0.7, 0.94

0.44
0.76
1.02

Answer 1

Answer: 0.76

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Option B is correct.

Explanation:

Given Data Set = 0.48 , 0.66 , 1.02 , 0.82 , 0.7 , 0.94

Number of observation in data set,N = 6

It is an even number.

So, Formula for Median =
`(((N)/(2))^(th)+((N)/(2)+1)^(th)\:term)/(2)`

before using the formula we arrange data in increasing order or decreasing order.

Data set in increasing order = 0.48 , 0.66 , 0.7 , 0.82 , 0.94 , 1.02

Now,

Median =
`(((6)/(2))^(th)+((6)/(2)+1)^(th)\:term)/(2)`

=
`(3^(rd)+4^(th)\:term)/(2)`

=
`(0.7+0.82)/(2)`

=
`(1.52)/(2)`

=
`0.76`

Therefore, Option B is correct.
