Question
Find the median of the given values : 47, 53, 62, 71, 83, 21, 43, 47, 41
Solution
Arrange the values in ascending order we get
21, 41, 43, 47, 47, 53, 62, 71, 83
The number of values = 9 which is odd
Median = `((9 + 1)/2)^"th"` variable
= `(10/2)^"th"` variable
= 5th variable
∴ Median = 47
