उत्तर
The given data set is
30, 34, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40
`n = 8 ` (even)
Median `=((n/2)^(th) "term" +(n/2+1)^(th)term)/2`
`= (4^(th) "term"+5^(th)"term")/2`=
`=(36 +37)/2`
`=73/2`
median = 36.5
If 35 is removed, then the new data set is
30, 34, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40
n = 7 (odd)
Therefore,
median `=((7+1)/2)^(th)`term
`=(8/2)^(th)`term
`=4^(th) ` term
median = 37
Increase in median
`=37 - 36.5`
`= 0 . 5`

The lengths of 40 leaves of a plant are measured correct to the nearest millimeter, and the data obtained is represented in the following table:
| Length (in mm) | Number of leaves |
| 118 − 126 | 3 |
| 127 – 135 | 5 |
| 136 − 144 | 9 |
| 145 – 153 | 12 |
| 154 – 162 | 5 |
| 163 – 171 | 4 |
| 172 – 180 | 2 |
Find the median length of the leaves.
(Hint: The data needs to be converted to continuous classes for finding the median, since the formula assumes continuous classes. The classes then change to 117.5 − 126.5, 126.5 − 135.5… 171.5 − 180.5)
