Question

The median of 15, 17, 13, 19, 20, 33, 22, 12, 18, and ◼ is 18.5. Is it possible to determine the missing value?

Answer 1

According to the data set with median 18.5 It is impossible to determine the missing value.

Median:

• Median is  centre number of a ascending or descending list of numbers.

Firstly, let's arrange the numbers in ascending list.

Therefore,

15, 17, 13, 19, 20, 33, 22, 12, 18, and x

Sorted number:

• 12, 13, 15, 17, 18, 19, 20, 22, 33 and x.

The amount of number is an even number. Therefore, the middle number is two. This means we add them and divide by 2.

Now, we don't know the value of the last number. But we were given the median as 18.5. Therefore, let's test it

18.5 = 18 + 19 / 2

37 / 2 = 18.5

It is impossible to determine the missing value.

Answer 2

It is NOT possible to determine the missing value from the given data.

Mean and Median

Mean is the average of a number of data while the median is the number at the middle of the given data.

• For a given data with a missing value, we can only find the missing value by calculating the mean of the data and equating the given mean.

Hence from the given data, it is NOT possible to determine the missing value from the given data.
