Answer 1

The median during the two week period is 1 inch.

Answer 2

1. Putting the numbers in order:

0, 0, 0, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1, 1.1, 1.3, 2.

2. Find middle number:

Since there is an even number of numbers, there are 2 numbers in the middle. 0.5 and 0.7. This means we add the numbers and divide by 2.

0.7 + 0.5 = 1.2

1.2 ÷ 2 = 0.6

Your answer is 0.6
