OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nnesha (nnesha):

okay so what is mean and median of that data ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

give me one sec

Nnesha (nnesha):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

median is 60.9 i think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

mean is 58.1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

am i right @Nnesha

Nnesha (nnesha):

mean is right gimme a sec i'll check median

Nnesha (nnesha):

hmm median isn't right :(

Nnesha (nnesha):

to find the median first you have to write that list in order

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did that and i had 2 number both 58

Nnesha (nnesha):

how did you find median ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let me redo it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

isnt it 58+58 then divide it by the how many numbers there are

Nnesha (nnesha):

to find the mean you have to add all numbers and divide the number of NUMBERS median is a middle number in the list of data :-) so that's why you have to write in numerical order did you get 58 for median ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah but with it being 20 numbers there is 2 58s

Nnesha (nnesha):

yes definition of median Median: is a middle number OR average of two middle number

Nnesha (nnesha):

so find average of that two number :-)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do i do that

Nnesha (nnesha):

average = mean add then divide by the number of numbers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

58?? would that be the answer

Nnesha (nnesha):

yep 58+58 divide by 2 = 58!!
