Given the data set:
93, 70, 72, 81, 72, 95, 87, 74, 72, 89, 89, 96, 73, 78
Let's find the median.
The median is the middle number after arranging the numbers in ascending order(from lowest to highest).
Arranging in ascending order, we have:
70, 72, 72, 72, 73, 74, 78, 81, 87, 89, 89, 93, 95, 96
Here, we have two middle numbers:
78 and 81
Since we have two middle numbers.
The median will be the average of the two middle numbers.
Hence, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{78+81}{2} \\ \\ =\frac{159}{2} \\ \\ =79.5 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the median is 79.5
ANSWER:
79.5
