Module 1. Mathematics

The median of the values 20, 28, 17, 34, 40, 11, 34, 26 is

  • 26.25.
  • 27.0.
  • 34.0.

Explanation

The median is the middle value once the data are sorted: 11, 17, 20, 26, 28, 34, 34, 40. With eight values, the median is the average of the 4th and 5th, (26 + 28) / 2 = 27.0. The 26.25 distractor is actually the mean, not the median.

26.25 is the mean. median - order numbers lowest to highest and find the middle... 11,17,20,26 # 28,34,34,40 ~ (26 + 28)/2 = 27
