Question

70 80 90 100 110 120 130 140 150 160 Is the mean greater than, less than, or equal to the median? Explain your reasoning.​

Answer 1

Mean: 115

70 + 80 + 90 + 100 + 110 + 120 + 130 + 140 + 150 + 160 / 10 = 115

(sum of numbers divded by total of numbers)

Median: 115

80 90 100 110 120 130 140 150

90 100 110 120 130 140

100 110 120 130

110 120

110 + 120 / 2 = 115

(middle value when numbers put in order from least to greatest, with two numbers you can add the leftover numbers together and divide by two)

So our answer is: Equal too
