Question
Find the median of the observations, 59, 75, 68, 70, 74, 75, 80.
Solution
The observations in ascending order: 59, 68, 70, 74, 75, 75, 80.
Since, the number of observation, n = 7, which is odd.
Median = `( (n + 1) / 2)^"th"` = `(( 7 + 1 ) / 2)^"th"` = `(8/2)^"th"` = 4th Observation 74
So, the median of the observations is 74.
