The median of a set of numbers is the value that has an equal count of numbers greater and less. In this example there are three numbers greater and three numbers less than 2.5, so the median is 2.5.

How do get the median in math?
To find the Median in Math, if you have two numbers, the Median will be the middle number. If you had 1 and 10 to find the Median from, the answer would be 5. Also, if the highest number is not an even number, you use a point. Example: 1 ----- ? ----- 9 ? = 4.5. That solve your answer?
4 numbers with a median of 6?
1,5,7,8 or 2,3,9,40 Any number which is middle number is 6. Not the mean though. It must be the mean of the numbers either side of the number you want. If you want 4 numbers, you need the 2 and a half number. For the 5 numbers you would chose the 3rd number
What would happen if the highest number were increased what would be the effect on the median and mean?
The median would not change, but the mean would increase.
What is the Median for 48 65 61 40 45 52?
The median is 50. Put the numbers in ascending numerical order: 40 45 48 52 61 65 For a set of numbers with an odd number of observations, the median would simply be the middle number. Because this set of numbers has an even number of observations, we take the middle two observations (48 and 52) and find their average. To find the average you add the observations and divide by the number of observations. In this case you would take 48 added to 52 and divide the sum of these numbers by 2. This gives you an answer of 50. (48 + 52 = 100 / 2 = 50)
What is the median if there is only 2 numbers showing?
Technically, you cannot find a median if you have only two numbers, so it would be more reasonable to use an average instead.
Where would the median number be located in a series of number?
order the numbers least to greatest and the median number is in the middle
What would the median number be of the numbers 21323?
the answer would be 2
What happens if you have 2 Median?
You take those numbers and find the median number of those say you got 6 and 8, The median would be 7. If the two numbers were 6 and 6, The median would be 6. If the two numbers are 6 and 7, the median would be 6.5
Mean median and mode numbers?
Mean is the average: Add all the numbers in a set and divide by the number of numbers. Median is if you wrote the numbers from largest to smallest, it would be the middle number. Mode is the Most common number.
What is the mathematical median?
The median is when you put all of the numbers in the question in least to greatest, then find the one in the middle. If you are left with two numbers, add both together and divide that by two.Glad to help!If you list your numbers in order, the median is the number in the middle of the list. If there is an even amount of numbers, the median is the value of the number that is half way between the two middle numbers. So if the two middle numbers were 16 and 21, the value half way between them would be 18.5 and that is your median.
What is the median of 80 and 81?
It is 80.5, the number halfway between them. Median means "half of the numbers are above and half are below". With only two numbers we just split the difference. In this case the Median and the Mean are the same number - but this is not always the case. If our numbers were 80, 80, 81, 83, the Median would still be 80.5 but the Mean would be 81.
What is the median of 43 and 38?
It is 40.5, the number halfway between them. Median means "half of the numbers are above and half are below". With only two numbers we just split the difference. In this case the Median and the Mean are the same number - but this is not always the case. If our numbers were 43, 38, 33, 46 the Median would still be 40.5 but the Mean would be 40
What would the median number be for the numbers 44 4749 54 and 67?
49
How do you do the median if there are to numbers?
You find the number right in between two numbers. Example: If you land in between 1 and 2, the median would be 1.5, or 1 and a half.
How do you get the median with an odd amount of numbers?
It is easy to get a median with an odd amount of numbers, as there will always be one number in the middle of the list. So, for example, if you have 7 numbers, n1, n2, n3, n4, n5, n6, n7, the 4th number is always the median, so n4 would be the median value in this case.
What do you do if there are 2 numbers in the middle in a median?
pic the number between the middle one's e.g 1,3,4,6,8,9 the median would be 5 because it is between the 2 middle numbers
