Question

Median of 23 observations is 52, what would be the median after adding 3 in each observations ?

• A. 52
• B. 53
• C. 54
• D. 55

Answer 1

The correct option is D 55

Here, all values are shifted by the same amount, the measures of median is also shifted by the same amount. If 3 is added to each data value, the median will also increase by 3. Thus, median of the observations after adding 3 in each observations is 52 + 3 = 55
