<em>Note: You may have missed to add the dot plots chart, so I found the chart after a little research and hence, I am attaching it and based on that dot plot chart I am solving the question which anyways would clear you concept.</em>

Answer:

''The median for the students is 2 and the median for the teachers is 3'' is the right option which compares the medians of the data.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data for students from the dot plot in order

0,\:0,\:1,\:1,\:1,\:1,\:2,\:2,\:2,\:2,\:2,\:2,\:2,\:3,\:3,\:3,\:3,\:3,\:4,\:4

Calculating Median for students:

0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4

As you can see, we do not have just one middle number but we have a pair of middle numbers i.e. 2 and 2, so the median is the average of these two numbers:

Median = (2+2)/2

            =4/2

            = 2

Data for teachers from the dot plot in order

0, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 8

Calculating Median for teachers:

0, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 8

As you can see, we do not have just one middle number but we have a pair of middle numbers i.e. 3 and 3, so the median is the average of these two numbers:

Median = (3+3)/2

            =6/2

            = 3

Therefore, ''the median for the students is 2 and the median for the teachers is 3'' is the right option which compares the medians of the data.
