What if the data set was even and the numbers were the same for the median?

You then add the two middle ones and divide by two to get the median.
If the numbers are the same then that is your median.

What if the data set has a even amount of numbers and the median was between the same numbers?
The median of a set of data is the "middle" value. Whenever there is an even number of values in a data set, you take the middle two numbers, add them together, and divide by two. For cases when the two middle numbers happen to be the same, you still add them up and divide by two. The key point is just that the answer will be the same as both the numbers.
When may the median of a set of data not be a member of the set data?
It can't * * * * * Yes it can. When there are an even number of observations and the middle two numbers are not the same.
What is median mean?
mean~ all the numbers in the data added together divided by the number of data. The mean is the same as the average. median~ the exact middle of the set of data. Example: 1,1,2,2, the median is 1.5 mean- the average median- the middle number in a set of numbers in a group.Example of Median-1,3,5,7,9,4,5 (put them in order and list them from least to greatest)1,3,4,5,5,7,9the median is 5!

How can two data sets with different numbers have the same mean median and mode?
(10,10,30,30,30,50,50) (20,20,30,30,30,40,40) These two sets have the same mean, median and mode.
How do you find the median of 4 numbers with 2 of those numbers being the same?
The fact that two of the four numbers are identical in no way changes the way you would find the median. When finding the median of a set of data, you must sort the data from highest to lowest (or lowest to highest). The data point right smack in the middle is the median. If there is an even number of data points -- as is the case here -- you must take the average of the two points in the middle. Let's say these are your data: 10, 10, 6, 3. The median is the average of 10 and 6, or 8. If your data is 10, 6, 6, 3, then the median is 6. If it's 10, 6, 3, 3, the median is 4.5 (the average of 6 and 3).
How is Median determined both in data sets with an odd and even number of values?
Odd: Line numbers up in numerical order, middle number. Even: Same as above, find two middle numbers, find mean of two middle numbers.
How is it possible for two sets of data to consist of different numbers but have the same mean the same median the same mode?
The range of a data set is the difference between the largest and smallest number in your set of data. Median is the number that comes in the middle. 54, 55, 56 has a range of 54-56 and a median of 55. The set 53, 55, 57 has a median of 55 also!
What is the median of 25343123222628 and 35?
The median of 2 numbers is the same as their mean.So, median = (25343123222628 + 35)/2 = 12,671,561,611,331.5The median of 2 numbers is the same as their mean.So, median = (25343123222628 + 35)/2 = 12,671,561,611,331.5The median of 2 numbers is the same as their mean.So, median = (25343123222628 + 35)/2 = 12,671,561,611,331.5The median of 2 numbers is the same as their mean.So, median = (25343123222628 + 35)/2 = 12,671,561,611,331.5
How do you get the mode with 6 numbers?
The same as with any other quantity of numbers. To get the median of an even number of numbers, you average the middle two numbers.
Why is the median not always in the data set?
The median is the middle number of a set. If the amount of numbers is even and the two middle numbers are not the same, then the value half way between them is the median. It is also the value when you add those two numbers and divide by 2. So if your two middle numbers were 7 and 5, the number halfway between them is 6, as is the number when you add 7 and 5 and divide by 2.
What would your median be if you had 84 and 85 as your numbers?
The median is the middle value or, in your case, where there is an even amount of numbers, the average of the two middle numbers. This means the median of 84 and 85 is the same as the average, which is 84.5 (84 and 85 divided by 2)
