Question

what is the media of the set of data? 9 3 1 8 3 6

I think it's either 1 or 8. but I'm not sure ​

Answer 1

Answer:

4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The media of a group of numbers is the number in the middle when the group is arranged in ascending or descending order.

So in order to find the answer, we arrange the numbers in ascending order.

Then we get

1, 3, 3, 6, 8, 9

Note that there are two numbers in the middle. Then we calculate the average of those 2 numbers to get the median.

So,

median = (3+6)/2 = 9/2 = 4.5
