Question

What is the median of the follow 6 scores ? 64 , 72, 85 , 80 , 72 , 89

Answer 1

Answer:

76

Step-by-step explanation:

median is the number in the very center of the list of numbers in order:

64, 72, 72, 80, 85, 89

to find the one in the middle we take away the numbers from both ends:

72, 72, 80, 85

72, 80

since there are two numbers in the middle we’ll find the average

(72+80)/2

152/2

76

Answer 2

Answer:

76

Step-by-step explanation:

Median means middle

so we are looking for the middle number

place the numbers in order and look for the number thats in the middle

64, 72, 72, 80, 85, 89

72 and 80 are both the middle numbers.

Therefore, we add 72+80 and then divide by 2

72+80= 152

152/2= 76

Final answer: 76 is the median
