Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The given set of numbers are 3,,5,6,9,13,,5,6,9,1 . The median is the middle value of a set of numbers when arranged in ascending order3. If the set has an even number of observations, the median is the average of the two middle numbers

STEP 2

First, we need to arrange the numbers in ascending order.
1,2,,5,6,91,2,,5,6,9

STEP 3

Now, since the number of observations is even (6), the median is the average of the third and fourth numbers.
Median=(3rdnumber+thnumber)/2Median = (3rd\, number +th\, number) /2

STEP 4

Plug in the values for the third and fourth numbers to calculate the median.
Median=(3+)/2Median = (3 +) /2

STEP 5

Calculate the median.
Median=(3+5)/2=4Median = (3 +5) /2 =4The median of the given set of numbers is4.
