Question

The weekly salaries of $8$ employees at KFC are $200,100,300,120,230,400,310,420$. Find the median.

• A. $210$
• B. $230$
• C. $265$
• D. $300$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$265$

First arrange the data in least to greatest number.
$100,120,200,230,300,310,400,420$.
The median is the middle of the numbers. (Number of terns are odd)

Here the median is the average of the two middle numbers.
Median $=$ $\frac{230+300}{2}=265$
So, the median is $265$.
