What is the median weight of the group?

Answer 1

153.5

Answer 2

why? and how? please

Answer 3

frist put the numbers in order and the middle number is the median
however when you have 2 numbers in the middle find the value that would be half way between them.

Answer 4

Well, if you organize the info from smallest number on the left to the biggest on the right, and order it, you would cross it out, side by side,so, for example, 115 would be crossed out farthest on the left, then 211 crossed out farthest on the right, and then keep crossing out the numbers , until you get at least one middle number, and if you cant add it by itself, you would have to split it into a decimal, or a hal. So that would be why
and, the median is the mi8ddle number of an ordered set of small to biggest number
I hope this explanation worked

Answer 5

*half. *middle *smallest

Answer 6

So thats why you would get 153.5
Or, you can just agree with the dog55's answer
