For the given data 67, 50, 34, 24, 78, 43. What is the median

For the given data 67, 50, 34, 24, 78, 43. What is the median?

(a) 45.5

(b) 46.5

(c) 47.5

(d) 50.5

Sol:

Arranging in ascending order, we get: 24, 34, 43, 50, 67, 78

Here, n (no.of observations) = 6 (even)

Using the median formula,

Median = (3rd obs. + 4th obs.)/2

= (43 + 50)/2

Median = 46.5
