Question

Jack bought 7 lottery tickets and recorded their serial numbers as mentioned below. What is the median of this data set?

22, 102, 147, 59, 49, 111, 105

• A. 59
• B. 147
• C. 102
• D. 111

Answer 1

The correct option is C 102

Median is the middle value of a numerically ordered data set.

Arranging the serial numbers in ascending order, we get:
22, 49, 59, 102, 105, 111, 147

Since the total number of data points is odd, the median is the middle value of the data set arranged in ascending order.

Hence, the median is 102.
