The given data shows the population of different cities. What is the median of this data ?
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
