Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Joaquin's score is
75,72,85,62,58,91

and Trisha's score is
92,90,55,76,91,74

Arranging score in order of value we get

Joaquin's :
58,62,72,75,85,91

Trisha's :
55,74,76,90,91,92

as no of values is even therefore their median is

Joaquin's
=(72+75)/(2)=73.5

Trisha's
=(76+90)/(2)=83

Therefore median of Joaquin's is lower

Thus Joaquin wins the game
