Cevap

The median is the middle value of an ordered dataset. When the numbers are ordered from least to greatest (4,7,12,13,194, 7, 12, 13, 19), the middle value is 1212.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Sort the data set in ascending order.
4,7,12,13,194, 7, 12, 13, 19
The median must be found from a properly ordered list of numbers.
2
Identify the middle number in the sorted list.
The 3rd number is 1212.
Since there are 55 numbers (an odd amount), the median is exactly the middle value.
