Question

If the median of $\frac{x}{5}$ $x$ $\frac{x}{4}$ $\frac{x}{2}$ and $\frac{x}{3}$ $(wherex>0)$ is $8$ then the value of $x$ would be

• A. $24$
• B. $32$
• C. $8$
• D. $16$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $24$

Arranging in ascending order the values are
$\frac{x}{5},\frac{x}{4},\frac{x}{3},\frac{x}{2},x$
Middle value $=\frac{x}{3}\Rightarrow \frac{x}{3}=8\Rightarrow x=24$
