hero (hero):

Where's the data set and what is the question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

{2, 1, 1, 0, 5, 6, 1, 3, 5, 3}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is the median of this data set?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A. 1 B. 2.5 C. 5.5 D. 6

OpenStudy (ash2326):

hero median is not mean,!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the median is the mid-number of the set when it is sorted from lowest to highest

hero (hero):

I get median and mean mixed up sometimes

hero (hero):

Sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the median is 2.5, because the set when ordered becomes {0 1 1 1 2 3 3 5 5 6}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the median is in between 2 and 3, the 5th and 6th numbers, so it is 2.5

OpenStudy (ash2326):

0,1,1,1,2,3,3,5,5,6 median will be average of 2 and 3=2.5
