Question

"What is the median of these numbers: 19, 11, 64, 36, 81, 22, 35, 95?

a. 31
b. 35.5
c. 36
d. 37.2"

Answer 1

b

Explanation:

the median is the middle value of a data set , arranged in ascending order (smallest to largest )

If there is no middle value then the median is the average of the values on either side of the middle

arrange the group in ascending order

11 , 19 , 22 , 35 , 36 , 64 , 81 , 95

↑ middle between 35 and 36

median = (35 + 36) ÷ 2 = 71 ÷ 2 = 35.5
