Question

Sara's recent golf scores are shown.
From the data shown what is the median of her scores?

Answer 1

To find the median, we need to put the scores in order from least to greatest:

65, 66, 68, 68, 70, 72, 72, 74, 74, 80, 80

There are 11 scores, so the median is the middle score, which is 72.

Therefore, the median of Sara's golf scores is 72.
