Question

The median of 3, 14, 18, 20, 5 is 18.

Answer 1

False

We will arrange the given numbers in ascending order as:
3, 5, 14, 18, 20
Here, n is 5, which is an odd number.

$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{Thus},\mathrm{we}\mathrm{have}: \\ \mathrm{Median}=\mathrm{Value}\mathrm{of}\left(\frac{n+1}{2}\right)\mathrm{th}\mathrm{term} \\ =\mathrm{Value}\mathrm{of}\mathrm{the}\mathrm{third}\mathrm{term} \\ =14 \end{gathered}$$
