Question

find the median and mean of the data set below: 0, 48, 27, 5, 9, 16, 21 answer attempt 1 out of 2 median = mean =

Explanation:

Step1: Sort the data set

$0,5,9,16,21,27,48$

Step2: Find the median

Since there are 7 data - points (an odd number), the median is the middle number. So the median is the 4th number, which is $16$.

Step3: Calculate the mean

The mean $\bar{x}=\frac{0 + 48+27+5+9+16+21}{7}=\frac{126}{7}=18$

Answer:

Median = $16$
Mean = $18$
