Finding Median for Grouped Data When Class Intervals Are Given

Find the medi...

Question

Find the median if total students are $40$
Weight $45$ $46$ $47$ $48$ $49$ $50$ $51$ $52$ $53$
Median $6$ $2$ $3$ $4$ $7$ $4$ $7$ $4$ $3$

Open in App

Solution

Median $= \frac{1}{2} ({\frac{n}{2}}^{t h} o b s e r + {(\frac{n}{2} + 1)}^{t h} o b s e r)$
$\begin{matrix} = \frac{1}{2} (20^{t h} + 21^{t h}) = \frac{1}{2} (49 + 49) = 49 \end{matrix}$
