Question

Find the median of the following data (1-8)
41, 43, 127, 99, 71, 92, 71, 58, 57

Answer 1

Arranging the given data in ascending order, we have:

41, 43, 57, 58, 71,71, 92, 99, 127
Here, n = 9, which is odd.

∴ Median = Value of ${\left(\frac{9+1}{2}\right)}^{th}$ observation, i.e., the 5^th observation = 71.
