Question
Find the median of 80, 48, 66, 61, 75, 52, 45 and 70
Solution
Arranging in ascending order, we get
45, 48, 52, 61, 66, 70, 75, 80
Here, number of terms = 8 which is even
`= 1/2 {"n"/2 "th term" + ("n"/2 + 1)"th term"}`
`= 1/2 {8/2 "th term" + (8/2 + 1)"th term"}`
`= 1/2` {4th term + 5th term}
`= 1/2 {61 + 66}`
`= 1/2 xx 127 = 63.5`
