Question

Tomás found the following prices when he was shopping for sports jerseys: $28, $36, $40, $30,
and $28. What is the median price?

answers below:

$28

$30

$32.40

$40

Answer 1

To find the median price, we first need to list the prices in ascending order:

1. $28
2. $28
3. $30
4. $36
5. $40

The median is the middle number in a sorted list. Since there are five prices (an odd number), the median is the third number in this ordered list.

The third number is $30.

So, the median price is **$30**.
