Question

Find the medium of the following set of data. Round to the nearest 10th if necessary 26.1,8.4,11.4,44.1,32.3,46.41,18.5,20,9.3,19.6

Answer 1

19.8

Explanation:

You have to first put the numbers into ascending order:

8.4, 9.3, 11.4, 18.5, 19.6, 20, 26.1, 32.3, 44.1, 46.41.

Because there is an even amount of numbers, you end up with 19.6 and 20.

The in between of 19.6 and 20 is 19.8.

(You can work this out by adding the two numbers together and then dividing by two if you have to.)
