In any data set are the median and mean usually very similar in value?
yes they are if you have 0 and 10 the mean is 5 and so is the median. The mean and the median can in fact be the same value. But basically to answer your question, One possible way is that if the values are ascending by 1 in the data set, then the number of values left to the median should be the same as the number of values right to the median. e.g. 6+7+8+9+10 6,7 = 2 terms 9,10 = 2 terms median =8 mode = 8
What do you do if there are 2 middle numbers to find the median?
If you are dealing with a set with an even number of data, like the one below: {1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 7} you can find the median by taking the average (mean) of the middle two values. For this example, the middle to values are 4 and 6, and the average of those two numbers is 5. So the median is 5.
Find the mean,median,mode and range of the following values:17,7,11,13,2,12,7.?
What is the answer
How can you find the median of the data without listing the values?
The median of a data set is the number that is literally in the middle. For example: The median of the number set 1,1,3,4,7, is 3 because it is in the physical middle of the set of numbers. Note: To find a median, the numbers MUST be in written in order the median of 2,6,3, is not 6. You must rearrange them like: 2,3,6 and we can see 3 is the median
What is the math median mean?
The MEDIAN is the number in the middle. In order to find the median, you have to put the values in order from lowest to highest, then find the number that is exactly in the middle. For example : 80 85 90 90 90 100 ^ since there is an even number of values, the MEDIAN is between these two, or it is 90. Notice that there is exactly the same number of values above the median as below it! Its that simple.
What is the median of 9-6-5-0-6-11-10?
If a set of numbers is arranged in ascending or descending order the median is the value which lies halfway along the series. 9-6-5-0-6-11-10 when placed in ascending order becomes 0-5-6-6-9-10-11. The median is therefore 6. Note : When there are an even number of values the median is the mean of the middle two values.
Find the median of 4 6 9 6 7 6?
I've ranked you're data with the two centered values in parenthesis: 4 6 (6 6) 7 9, median = (6+6)/2 = 6
What is theMedian for 4567?
The median is the middle value when the values are put in order, but if you have an odd number of values then you need to work out what is in the middle of the middle two values - 5.5 in this case. i think it's 5.5 because it is the middle number to 4567 is 5.5 because it i in between 5 +6 5.5 Median is the same as the average. 4+5+6+7 = 22. 22 divided by 4= 5.5
Can you take the median of median values?
This question has no meaning.
What is the median of a set of values?
the median is a value of which half of all the values are less than, and half of all the values are greater than.
You are trying to do a mean problem but you have 2 numbers in the middle what do you do?
You may be confusing mean with median. An arithmetic mean is, the sum of all the values ÷ the number of values. Consequently the number of values can be either odd or even. After arranging a set of values in ascending (or descending) order, the median is the value that lies half way along the series. When there are an even number of values the median is found by taking the mean of the middle two values. Example : 3, 5, 5, 7, 8, 8 The median of this set is (5 + 7) ÷ 2 = 6
What is the median to 3 50g 5 100g 6 150g?
The median is the value that is in 'the middle'. That is, half the values fall below it, half above it. There are a total of 3 + 5 + 6 = 14 sample values. There is no 'middle' value exactly since there are an even number of values. Both the 7th and the 8th largest value are 100 g. Their average is 100 g. Therefore, the median of this sample is 100 g.
For an odd number of data how is the median computed?
For an odd number of data values, the median is the middle number, the [(n+1)/2]th numberi.e. for 7 data values, (7 +1)/ 2 = 4, and the 4th is the middle value, or median.*For an even number of values, the median is the mean of the two middle numbers,i.e. one-half the sum of the two middle values (add n/2nd value and n/2+1st values and divide by 2).Examples:Median of 1, 3, 2 reordered as 1, 2, 3 = median 2Median of 6, 5, 3, 1 reordered as 1, 3, 5, 6 = median 4 (3+5 divided by 2)
What is the median for 6 7 8 9?
7 and 8 * * * * * No. You cannot have two medians. If you have an even number of values, the median is the average (mean) of the middle two. So median = (7 + 8)/2 = 7.5
In any data set are the median and mean usually very similar in value?
yes they are if you have 0 and 10 the mean is 5 and so is the median. The mean and the median can in fact be the same value. But basically to answer your question, One possible way is that if the values are ascending by 1 in the data set, then the number of values left to the median should be the same as the number of values right to the median. e.g. 6+7+8+9+10 6,7 = 2 terms 9,10 = 2 terms median =8 mode = 8
What do you do if there are 2 middle numbers to find the median?
If you are dealing with a set with an even number of data, like the one below: {1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 7} you can find the median by taking the average (mean) of the middle two values. For this example, the middle to values are 4 and 6, and the average of those two numbers is 5. So the median is 5.
Can the mean be smaller than the median for a set of data?
Yes. If the lower values tend to be farther below the median than the highest values are above the median, the mean is smaller than the median. why are write wrong
