Solution

The correct option is D

49750


To find the median , we need to arrange the data in ascending order first :

39500 , 43000 , 44000 , 48500 , 51000 , 55000 , 57000 , 60000

Since there are 8 observations, the median will be given by average of 4th and 5th term.

4th term = 48500 and 5th term = 51000

Median = 48500+510002

= 49750
