truwe or false ? the median of a list of whole numbers must be a whole number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

False. I'll explain with an example Consider the list 1,2,4,5,6,7 The median is normally just the middle number, however since there is not a middle number (since there is an even amount of numbers) the median is just halfway between four and five. The median for that set is 4.5 which is NOT a whole number. Hope this helps.
