The median of these numbers are 40

Answer 2

Answer:

31.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The MEDIAN is the middle value in a data set.

If the data set has an even amount of values, then the MEDIAN is the MEAN of the two middle values.

For this data set, the middle values are 38 and 25.

To find MEAN, add up all the values and divide by the number of values.

38+25=63

63÷2=31.5

The MEDIAN for this data set is 31.5.
