How is the median value of a data set used in healthcare?

What is the middle number in a set data after the data is arranged from least to greatest?

The median value of a range of values.


Is it true that the median is always one of the data points in a set of data?

No, it is not necessarily true that the median is always one of the data points in a set of data. The median is found by arranging the data in numerical order and selecting the middle value. This value might be one of the data points, but it could also be the average of two data points if there is an even number of values in the set.


Does the median in the set of data have to be close in value to the mean?

The median of the set of data does not have to be close in value to the mean. First of all, what is the median? The median is the middle number between a set of numbers. So if you are asked what the median of a set of numbers is.... put the set of numbers in order from lowest in value to highest value. Example.... 1, 2, 3, 45, 100, 1010, 1020. In this example, what is the median, or the middle number? It's ... 45! If you want to find the mean ... add all of the numbers and divide the sum by the AMOUNT of numbers there are in the set.... the sum of the set is 2181.. and there are 7 numbers in the set. The mean is 2181 / 7 = 311. 57. You can see that 311 is not close in value to 45.
