Find the median of the following data set. Assume the data set is a sample. 49, 34, 36, 29, 47, 30, 42, 43, 36, 41, 38, 37

1 answer

To find the median, we first need to arrange the data set in numerical order:

29, 30, 34, 36, 36, 37, 38, 41, 42, 43, 47, 49

Since the data set has an even number of values, the median is the average of the two middle values. In this case, the two middle values are 36 and 37.

(36 + 37) / 2 = 73 / 2 = 36.5

So, the median of the data set is 36.5.
