Answer: 70

<u>Order the Numbers</u>

Before: 78, 57, 45, 70, 72

After: 45, 57, 70, 72, 78

The median is 70 because it's the middle number.

Finding the median involves finding the value in a data sample that has a physical location between the rest of the numbers.

Note: When calculating the median of a finite list of numbers, the order of the data samples is important. Conventionally, the values are listed in ascending order, but there is no real reason that listing the values in descending order would provide different results.

Answer:

1200

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the value they are asking for is in minutes, we need to convert seconds to minutes. We can do that by multiplying 4 and 60, because there are 60 seconds in a minute, and we need to find the value of one minute. Also because the value they gave is 4. When we do this, we get 240. To get the final answer, we need to multiply 240 and 5, because 240 is the descending rate per minute, and they are asking for 5 minutes. When we do this, we get 1200.
