what is the median
For Company A:
Total number of values = 16
Median = (n+1) / 2 = (16+1) / 2 = 8.5
The median is the average of the 8th and 9th values when arranged in ascending order.
Therefore, the median for Company A is (40 + 41) / 2 = 40.5

For Company B:
Total number of values = 16
Median = (n+1) / 2 = (16+1) / 2 = 8.5
The median is the average of the 8th and 9th values when arranged in ascending order.
Therefore, the median for Company B is (44 + 45) / 2 = 44.5
