Question

Given data is $14,36,25,28,35,56,42,50$. If another observation $61$ is also included to the given data, what would be the median?

• A. $36$
• B. $35.5$
• C. $37.5$
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A $36$

Arranging given list in ascending order

$14,25,28,35,36,42,50,56$

Adding $61$ to the list

$14,25,28,35,36,42,50,56,61$

Median { 9+1 }{ 2 } =5th$ element

$\therefore$ Median$=36$
