A. 2
B. 5
C. 2.5
D. None
Answer is = C
You’re right! The median of the data set 1, 2, 4, 5, 2, 3 is:
C. 2.5
Here’s how to find the median:
- Order the data: 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5
- Identify the middle number(s): Since we have an even number of terms (6), the median is the average of the two middle numbers. In this case, the middle numbers are 3 and 4.
- Calculate the average: Median = (2+ 3) / 2 = 5 / 2 = 2.5
Therefore, the median of the data set is 2.5
Correct answer is 2.5
