Use the following dates to compute the ALOS and median LOS and range. The discharge date is July 2nd (non-leap year). Round the ALOS to one decimal place.
Admission Date LOS
1-2 January = 29; February = 28; March = 31; April = 30; May = 31; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 181
1-10 January = 21; February = 28; March = 31; April = 30; May = 31; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 173
2-8 February = 20; March = 31; April = 30; May = 31; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 144
2-10 February = 18; March = 31; April = 30; May = 31; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 142
2-26 February = 2; March = 31; April = 30; May = 31; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 126
3-1 March = 30; April = 30; May = 31; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 123
3-6 March = 25; April = 30; May = 31; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 118
3-12 March = 19; April = 30; May = 31; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 112
3-15 March = 16; April = 30; May = 31; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 109
4-1 April = 29; May = 31; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 92
4-15 April = 15; May = 31; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 78
5-3 May = 28; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 60
5-5 May = 26; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 58
5-6 May = 25; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 57
5-18 May = 13; June = 30; July = 2; Total = 45
6-17 June = 13; July = 2; Total = 15
6-29 June = 1; July = 2; Total = 3
7-1 July 2; Total = 1
Okay I need help with this I want to make sure If I am doing this right or not. This is statistics for healthcare.
I calculated the median as 109+92=201/2=100.5
Range-180
I am confused on how I go about figuring out the ALOS (average length of stay) for this problem. Can anyone help me figure this out. I would appreciate it. Thank you.

The total LOS divided by the number of patients discharge is the average length of stay (ALOS).
I confuse myself with all of this. Thanks so much for your help Kuai!
