Question

find the median and mean of the data set below: 47, 23, 14, 34, 12 answer attempt 1 out of 2 median = mean =

Explanation:

Step1: Sort the data set

$12, 14, 23, 34, 47$

Step2: Find the median

Since there are 5 (odd number) data - points, the median is the middle number. So the median is 23.

Step3: Calculate the mean

The mean $\bar{x}=\frac{47 + 23+14 + 34+12}{5}=\frac{130}{5}=26$

Answer:

Median = 23
Mean = 26
