Question

359, 357, 348, 347, 337, 347, 340, 335, 338, 348, 339, 356, 336, 358 a. median: 359 mode: 358 c. median: 347 mode: 347 AND 348 b. median: 340 mode: 350 d. median: 358 mode: 348

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C (Median: 347 and Mode: 347 and 348)

Step-by-step explanation:

Median is the middle point of the data and mode is the most repeated observation is the data. The first step involved in calculating the median it to list the observations in the ascending order. This gives:

335, 336, 337, 338, 339, 340, 347, 347, 348, 348, 356, 357, 358, 359

The second step is to identify the middle number (in case the observations are in odd numbers) or numbers (in case the observations are in even numbers) after the ascending order step has been done. It can be observed that the middle numbers in this data set are 347 and 347. Since there are two numbers, so their average will be the median of this data set. Therefore, the median is 347. It can be seen that maximum repetitions are 2 times for 347 and 348. So the mode is 347 and 348.

Therefore, Option C is the correct answer!!!
