What is the median of the following set of data? 21, 4, 18, 9, 25, 16, 27, 30,

33, 15, 31

Median: 21

Step-by-step explanation:

arrange all the numbers from least to greatest:

4, 9, 15, 16, 18, 21, 25, 27, 30, 31, 33

median = is the middle number in the data set/listed numbers.

Since there are eleven numbers in the set of data, we divide it equally, to find the median.

{4, 9, 15, 16, 18} 21 {25, 27, 30, 31, 33}

The median is the middle number in the data set when

the data set is written from least to greatest.

So let's write our data set from least to greatest.

4, 9, 15, 16, 18, 21, 25, 27, 30, 31, 33

Now, we identify the middle number.

4, 9, 15, 16, 18, 21, 25, 27, 30, 31, 33

Notice that 21 appears in the middle.

So the median of the data set is 21.
