Question

12/18 final exam
determine the median of the following measurements
123, 432, 576, 323, 754, 324, 765, 233 the median is

Explanation:

Step1: Order the data

First, we need to arrange the given numbers in ascending order. The numbers are 123, 432, 576, 323, 754, 324, 765, 233. Arranging them from smallest to largest: 123, 233, 323, 324, 432, 576, 754, 765.

Step2: Find the median

Since there are 8 numbers (an even number of observations), the median is the average of the two middle numbers. The two middle numbers are the 4th and 5th numbers in the ordered list. The 4th number is 324 and the 5th number is 432. We calculate the average of these two numbers: $\frac{324 + 432}{2}=\frac{756}{2} = 378$.

Answer:

378
