Question

Find the median of the observations:$59,75,68,70,74,75,80$.

Answer 1

The observations in ascending order:$59,68,70,74,75,75,80$.
Since, the number of observations, $n=7$, which is odd.
$=Median=(\frac{n+1}{2})th=(\frac{7+1}{2})th=(\frac{8}{2})th=4th$ Observation $74$
So, the median of the observations is $74$.
