Question

Patricia recorded the prices of watched at a store the prices are shown in the table. What is the median price of the watches in dollars

Answer 1

$18

Explanation:

The median price is the middle number of the data set given for price when ordered.

To find the median price, first order the data from the least to the largest.

12, 15, 16, 16, 20, 22, 24, 27

The median price is between 16 and 20, therefore, the average of 16 and 20 would give us the median price.

Median = (16 + 20) ÷ 2 =36 ÷ 2 = 18

Median price of the watches recorded is $18.
