To find the mean temperature, add up all the temperatures and divide by the number of days:
(45 + 52 + 44 + 62 + 55 + 49 + 50) / 7 = 357 / 7 = 51 degrees
Mean temperature = 51 degrees
To find the median temperature, first arrange the temperatures in numerical order:
44, 45, 49, 50, 52, 55, 62
Since there are an odd number of temperatures (7), the median is the middle number which is 50.
Median temperature = 50 degrees.
