Answer:

1) 8

2) the median of the scores is 81

3) So, 8 students scored in the 70s, and the median score is 81

Explanation:

1) the number of numbers listed is how many numbers there are

  • EX: 4| 1, 2, 5, 6 (where 4|1 equals 41)
  • there are four numbers listed: 41, 42, 45, 46

2) the median is the middle number! when you list all of the numbers, the one in the middle is the median!

  • EX: 2, 4, 5, 8, 10
  • the median would be 5! why? because it's in the middle!

let me know if any of this is confusing and i'll try to explain it further :)
