Question

What is the median number of guest for each holiday

Answer 1

You have not given the data for which you like to find the median.

I will however explain how you can find the median of a given set of data, and you can apply the same method to your problem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Median, just like it sounds, is simply the middle value of a given set of data.

Given a set of numbers:

a, b, c, d, e, ..., z.

To find the median, first,

- Arrange the numbers a, b, c, d, e, ..., ..., z in an ascending or descending order.

- Count the whole numbers, if it is odd, you have a middle number, and that is the median.

If it is even, you have two middle numbers, then the median will be the addition of those two numbers divided by two.

Example: To find the median of

4, 5, 2, 1, 2, 6, 7, 3, 5.

First, we arrange in ascending:

1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 7

Next, we locate the middle number(s), which is 4.

The MEDIAN is 4 .

Example 2: To find the median of

9, 4, 5, 2, 1, 2, 6, 7, 3, 5.

First, we arrange in ascending:

1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 7, 9

Next, we locate the middle number(2), which are 4 and 5.

The median = (4 + 5)/2

= 9/2

= 4.5

The MEDIAN is 4.5.
