Find the median of the data set: 23,32,38,19,28,27,36,29,26,32

Answer 1

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

19, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 32, 32, 36, 38

Since there are 10 numbers in the data set, the middle two numbers are the 5th and 6th numbers. The median is the average of these two middle numbers:

Median = (28 + 29) / 2
Median = 57 / 2
Median = 28.5

Therefore, the median of the data set is 28.5.
