Question

The following line plot shows the number of baskets scored by a team in the last $31$ basketball matches. Each dot represents a match played.

What is the median of the baskets scored by the team?

• A. $75$
• B. $25$
• C. $76$
• D. $58$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $58$


The median basket count $=\left(\frac{31+2}{2}\right)=\frac{32}{2}={16}^{\text{th}}$ term
Hence the ${16}^{\text{th}}$ term corresponds to $58$ baskets.
