The data shows the number of Miles run per week by randomly selected students from two classes. Find the difference between the medians which class has a higher median and by how much.

Answer 1

Class A: 12, 15, 18, 22, 25
Class B: 10, 14, 16, 19, 23

To find the median for both classes, we first need to arrange the data in ascending order.

For Class A: 12, 15, 18, 22, 25
Median = 18

For Class B: 10, 14, 16, 19, 23
Median = 16

So, the median for Class A is 18 and the median for Class B is 16.

The difference between the medians is 18 - 16 = 2.

Therefore, Class A has a higher median by 2 miles.
