Prison inmates.
There are two numbers, 53054 and 72674. You want me to tell you which value would logically be the mean income and which would be the median income. Since the group excludes people with part-time or unemployed, but includes people with advanced degrees (at least a bachelors), this would suggest a right skewed distribution. A small percentage of high income earners will add to the tail, making the mean higher than the median. Under these conditions, it would be sensible to consider the median = $53054 and the mean = $72674. This is not absolute. If my sample was small and included only new graduates at a particular school, which had a few very low wage earners, (teaching assistants), the opposite could be true.
When numbers are put in order either least to greatest or greatest to least, the one in the middle is the median. In an even set of numbers the average of the middle two numbers is the median. 30.5 is the median of these 3 numbers.
order the numbers least to greatest and the median number is in the middle
The median must be at least as great as the first quartile in any data set. Normally it would be greater.The median must be at least as great as the first quartile in any data set.

Lately, me. That's why I have so much time to dedicate to WikiAnswers. By the way ... a single person can't have a 'median' anything. 'Median' is a statistical characteristic of a population of many individuals. That actually makes me feel better now.

In which country are the people least likely to change their physical environment?
To find a median, put the set of numbers in least to greatest. The number in the middle = median.
Median is that.
No and a single number cannot have a median either you need a series (at least two) to have a median.
When numbers are put in order either least to greatest or greatest to least, the one in the middle is the median. In an even set of numbers the average of the middle two numbers is the median. 30.5 is the median of these 3 numbers.
arrange the set of number in order from least to greatest and the middle number is the median. You have to arrange them in order from least to greatest or it's wrong. (or greatest to least)
It is the number in the middle of the set from least to greatest or greatest to least. If you're having trouble, remember this song: Mean, median, mode.Mean, median, mode. Here's what they are. Here's what they are. The mean is the one that you add then divide. The median is the one in the middle of the line. The mode is the one you see most of the time. Mean, median, mode. Mean, median, mode.
