Question

What is the median for the data set?

Answer 1

546.5 is the right answer I just took the test.

Answer 2

Answer:

The median of the set is:

546.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the median of a data set is the central tendency of the data i.e. the data point that lie in the middle of the data set.

The median of data is calculated by arranging the data in the increasing order and then see the middle data point in the set:

The increasing order is given as:

512   517    524   526   541   552   558   574   579   595.

We have 10 data points so the median lie between 541 and 552.

so, the median is:

$Median=\dfrac{541+552}{2}\\\\Median=546.5$

Hence, Median=546.5
