(08.02)The scores of several classmates on a science test are shown below:

85 points 91 points 76 points 80 points 83 points 89 points 94 points 75 points 84 points 94 points

What is the median score for these students?
83 points
83.5 points
84 points
84.5 points

75 76 80 85 84 ___

85 89 91 04 94
so which answer is halfway between 84 and 85 ?

84.5

To find the median score, you need to arrange the scores in ascending order:

75 points, 76 points, 80 points, 83 points, 84 points, 85 points, 89 points, 91 points, 94 points, 94 points

Since there are 10 scores, the median will be the average of the middle two scores: 83 points and 84 points.

Therefore, the median score for these students is 83.5 points.

To find the median score for these students, follow these steps:

1. Start by arranging the scores in ascending order:
75 points, 76 points, 80 points, 83 points, 84 points, 85 points, 89 points, 91 points, 94 points, 94 points

2. Since there are 10 scores, locate the middle score. In this case, the middle score will be the 5th score.

3. The 5th score in the ascending order is 84 points.

Therefore, the median score for these students is 84 points. So, the correct answer is option C: 84 points.
