<em>We </em><em>can </em><em>find </em><em>the </em><em>median </em><em>by </em><em>using </em><em>the </em><em>formula:</em>

<em>(</em><em>N+</em><em>1</em><em>/</em><em>2</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>th </em><em>item</em>

<em>For </em><em>example:</em>

<em>Given </em><em>data:</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em>,</em><em>6</em><em>,</em><em>3</em><em>,</em><em>5</em><em>,</em><em>7</em>

<em>We </em><em>have </em><em>to </em><em>arrange </em><em>the </em><em>data </em><em>into </em><em>ascending</em><em> </em><em>order</em><em>:</em>

<em>=</em><em>3</em><em>,</em><em>4</em><em>,</em><em>5</em><em>,</em><em>6</em><em>,</em><em>7</em>

<em>N(</em><em>total </em><em>no </em><em>of </em><em>items)</em><em>=</em><em>5</em>

<em>Now,</em>

<em>Median=</em><em>(</em><em>N+</em><em>1</em><em>/</em><em>2</em><em>)</em><em>th </em><em>item</em>

<em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em>=</em><em>(</em><em>5</em><em>+</em><em>1</em><em>/</em><em>2</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>th </em><em>item</em>

<em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em>=</em><em>(</em><em>6</em><em>/</em><em>2</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>th </em><em>item</em>

<em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em>r</em><em>d</em><em> </em><em>item</em>

<em>Median=</em><em>5</em>

<em>Hope </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>helps</em>

<em>Good </em><em>luck</em><em> on</em><em> your</em><em> assignment</em>

To find the median, put all numbers into ascending order and work into the middle by crossing off numbers at each end. If there are a lot of items of data, add 1 to the number of items of data and then divide by 2 to find which item of data will be the median

Answer:

9/32 of the cookie was left for Stephanie to eat after lunch

Step-by-step explanation:

Anastasia’s mom baked a giant sugar cookie for her birthday.

On her birthday, ⅝ of the birthday cookie was eaten.

So, remaining cake = $1 - \frac{5}{8}=\frac{3}{8}$

The next day her brother ate ¼ of what remained.

Amount of cake eaten by her brother = $\frac{1}{4}(\frac{3}{8})=\frac{3}{32}$

So, remaining cake = $\frac{3}{8}-\frac{3}{32}=\frac{12-3}{32}=\frac{9}{32}$

Hence 9/32 of the cookie was left for Stephanie to eat after lunch
