Question

Find the median of the following values :

37, 31, 42, 43, 46, 25, 39, 45, 32

Answer 1

Arranging the data in ascending order, we have

25, 31, 32, 37, 39, 42, 43, 45, 46

Here the number of observations n = 9(odd)

∴ Median = Value of ((9 + 1)/2)^th observation

= Value of 5^th observation

= 39.
