Answer 1

Median = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The median of a group of data is the item in the middle.

Given the group of data items:

4,5, 8, 13, 15, 16, 18​

Step 1: Place them in numerical order (from lowest to highest)

4, 5, 8, 13, 15, 16, 18​

Step 2: Identify the number in the middle

4, 5, 8, 13, 15, 16, 18​

The number in the middle is 13, therefore:

The median = 13
