A store manager recorded the number of orders processed online each day during a one-week period: $14$ , $7$ , $25$ , $11$ , $18$ , $2$ , and $16$ . What is the median number of daily online orders processed during this week?

A
$11$
$14$ Cevap
C
$16$
D
$18$
E
$93$

Cevap

The median number of daily online orders is

14

To find the median, the seven numbers must first be placed in ascending order:

2, 7, 11, 14, 16, 18, 25

. Since there is an odd number of data points (

7

), the median is the single middle value located at the 4th position, which is

14

Adım Adım Çözüm

Arrange the given dataset of seven numbers in ascending order.

The sorted dataset is

2, 7, 11, 14, 16, 18, 25

To determine the median of any dataset, the numerical values must first be ordered from smallest to largest.

Find the position of the middle element for a dataset with

n = 7

values.

The median position is

\frac{7 + 1}{2} = 4

When a dataset contains an odd number of elements

n

, the median is located at the

\frac{n+1}{2}

-th position.

Identify the 4th element in the sorted list.

The 4th element is

14

In the ordered sequence

2, 7, 11, 14, 16, 18, 25

, the 4th entry is

14
