The best approximation for the median is 3.6.
An illustration of a numerical distribution with continuous results is a density curve. A density curve is, in other words, the graph of a continuous distribution. This implies that density curves can represent continuous quantities like time and weight rather than discrete events like rolling a die (which would be discrete). As seen by the bell-shaped "normal distribution," density curves either lie above or on a horizontal line (one of the most common density curves).
For the given density curve, the area under the density curve is
A=(1/2)×5×(1/2)=5/4
now, for the median, the area on the left and the area on the right of the median.
Let the median be x, then
The area criteria we get
(1/2)x(x/10)=(5/4)/2
⇒x²=5*20/4=25/2
So, we get x=5/()=3.5 ≈ 3.6
Hence the required answer is option 3.6
