In March in Austin, Texas, the temperatures for 7 consecutive days were 20°C, 22°C, 20°C, 24°C, 21°C, 26°C, and 23°C. What was the median of the temperatures for these days?

Answer 1

First, we arrange the temperatures in ascending order:

20°C, 20°C, 21°C, 22°C, 23°C, 24°C, 26°C

Since there are 7 temperatures, the median is the middle value. In this case, the middle temperature is the 4th one, which is 22°C.

Therefore, the median of the temperatures for these days is 22°C.
