Question

What is the median for the following set of data?

4, 4, 6, 10, 12, 13, 15, 16



a 12

b 10

c 11

d 16

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

The median is where we find the number that is in the middle of the data set. In this case, there cannot be a single number in the middle because the number of numbers in this data is even.

Knowing this, we need to add the two numbers that are in the middle (10 and 12). We add these two numbers and divide them by 2

`(10+12)/(2) =(22)/(2) =11`
