The values of several houses on Mango Street are displayed on the table. What is the median value of these houses?

1 answer

To find the median value, we need to list the values in order from least to greatest.

$150,000, $220,000, $490,000, $800,000, $975,000

There are a total of 16 houses. Since 16 is an even number, we need to find the average of the two middle values (the eighth and ninth values).

The eighth value is $490,000 and the ninth value is $800,000.

The average of $490,000 and $800,000 is:

($490,000 + $800,000) / 2 = $645,000

Therefore, the median value of these houses is $645,000.
