Find the median of the set of data. 4, 16, 7, 10, 15, 11, 13, 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its the middle number but you have to rearrange the numbers in order

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 4, 7, 10, 11, 13, 15, 16, 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but since there is a even number of numbers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

youd add the two middle numbers and find their average

OpenStudy (anonymous):

11+13=24 divided by 2 is 12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and thats your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its good to understand it btw kyrie not just ask it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it will help you later on in math

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ya know I was guna ask -.-

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you need me to explain i can

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhhh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

kyrie what would the mode be in this situation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1,2,3,4,5 2+3 or 3+4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no thats only when theres an even amount of numbers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh so this one is3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

like 3 would be the median because there is 5 numbers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah nice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but what about in this situation 1,2,3,4,5,6

OpenStudy (anonymous):
