i think the question is referring to the bottom table
OpenStudy (hockeychick23):
i got 239 adding up all the ones on the bottom under the ages
OpenStudy (rational):
Yes!
whats the "mid" value of first 239 positive integers ?
OpenStudy (rational):
239/2 = 119.5
the mid value is 120, so the median would be the "age" corresponding to the 120th penny
OpenStudy (hockeychick23):
ohh ok so do i go to the bottom where all the pennies are listed and find the age that its in? because when i did that i got that the age was 2
