Class A: 2, 3, 4, 6, 7
Class B: 1, 2, 2, 3, 5
To find the median number of books read by each class, we first arrange the numbers in each class in numerical order:
Class A: 2, 3, 4, 6, 7
Class B: 1, 2, 2, 3, 5
Next, we find the middle number in each set. Since each set has an odd number of values, the median is the middle number:
For Class A: Median = 4
For Class B: Median = 2
Therefore, Class A has a higher median number of books read (4) compared to Class B (2).
