Question

What is the median of 11 12 13 14 ?

Answer 1

`color(brown)(12.5` is the median

Explanation:

The median is the middle number of a set. To find the median, write the numbers out and find the middle number. If there is an even number of terms in the set, there will be two middle terms:

`11, 12, 13, 14`

`11, color(red)12, color(red)13, 14`

Add these two terms together, and divide them by 2:

`(12 + 13)/2 rarr color(brown)(25/2 rarr 12.5`

`color(brown)(12.5` is the median.
