Question

What is the median of this data set?[43,42,43,37,38,36,39)

Answer 1

To determine the median of a data set, we have to arrange first the data in an ascending or descending order.

`36,37,38,39,42,43,43,`

After arranging, find the middle-most data. Since there are 7 samples in the data, the middle-most would be the 4th data.

Hence, the median is 39.
