Which of the models are the questions referring to?
To determine the median, we need to set up our numbers from least to greatest, and then place T in later to figure out what T is.
8, 9, 9, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15. Cross out the smallest number with the largest number.
9, 9, 9, 10, 11, 12.
9, 9, 10, 11.
9, 10.
9.5 is our median currently.
Since we need to get a number after 10 to make 10 the median, let's use 12.
8, 9, 9, 9, 10, 11, 12, 12, 15.
9, 9, 9, 10, 11, 12 ,12.
9, 9, 10, 11, 12.
9, 10, 11.
10 is now our median since we inserted 12 into our list.
Your answer is 12.
I hope this helps!
In case the user wants to see workings. These problems can easily be solved on a calculator, but can we work them out in our heads? ;)
9.34-3.029
=9.340-3.029
=9.340-3.000-0.029
=6.340-0.029
=6.311
