Find the median of the data set: 56,60,60,40,60,75,40,25,53,34,62,76
Apologies for the mistake. Let's find the median of the data set again.
Ordering the numbers from least to greatest: 25, 34, 40, 40, 53, 56, 60, 60, 60, 62, 75, 76
There are a total of 12 numbers in the data set.
Since there are even numbers of data points, the median will be the average of the two middle numbers, which are the 6th and 7th numbers in this case.
The 6th number is 56 and the 7th number is 60.
To find the median, we calculate the mean of 56 and 60:
(56 + 60) / 2 = 116 / 2 = 58
Therefore, the median of the data set is 58.
First, we need to put the numbers in order from least to greatest: 25, 34, 40, 40, 53, 56, 60, 60, 60, 62, 75, 76
Since there are 12 numbers in the data set, the median will be the average of the 6th and 7th numbers in the ordered list.
The 6th number is 60 and the 7th number is 60, so they are the same.
Therefore, the median of the data set is 60.
