To find the median, we first need to arrange the data set in numerical order:
2, 3, 14, 36, 36, 38, 46
The median is the middle value when the data set is in order. Since there are 7 numbers in the data set, the median is the fourth number, which is 36.
To find the mean, we add up all the numbers in the data set and then divide by the total number of values:
(2 + 3 + 14 + 36 + 36 + 38 + 46) / 7 = 175 / 7 = 25
Therefore, the median of the data set is 36 and the mean is 25.
Find the median and mean of the data set below:
46,36,36,3,38,14,2
