Well, isn't that just a happy little problem to solve! To find the missing number when the median is given, you'll want to first list all the numbers in order. Then, if the median is the middle number, you can easily identify the missing number based on whether it falls before or after the median. Just remember, there are no mistakes in math, only happy little accidents!
Then that is the median. A median does not have to be a whole number. It can be a decimal number, even when the set of the numbers you are getting the median for are all whole numbers.
The median is the number in the middle. Arrange all the scores from smallest to biggest and the middle on is the median if there is an odd number of scores. If there is an even number of scores, find the mean of the two middle numbers and that is the median.
The median is the middle number when the numbers are listed in order; if there is an even number of numbers, the median is the mean of the middle two. 35,380 - two numbers - two is even, therefore median is the mean of the middle two, ie the mean of 35 and 380: median = (35 + 380) ÷ 2 = 207.5
The median is the middle number of any given set when they are in order, least to greatest. If there is an even number of values, the median is the average of the middle two. Ex. (10, 17, 20, 45, 68) The median is 20.
