Find the median of the dataset { 6.1, 4.8, 8.8, 10.5, 5.2, 17.4 }.

Answer 1

To find the median of a dataset, we first need to arrange the numbers in ascending order:

4.8, 5.2, 6.1, 8.8, 10.5, 17.4

Since there are 6 numbers in the dataset, the median is the middle number when the numbers are arranged in ascending order. In this case, the median is 6.1.
