Find the median of the following data:
20,21,27,28,28,39,49.


Given :

The given data are 20,21,27,28,28,39,49.

To do :

We have to find the median of the given data.

Solution :

20,21,27,28,28,39,49.

The data already arranged in ascending order.

Number of observations(n) $= 7$

So, Median $= \frac{n+1}{2} ^{th}$ position.

                   $ = \frac{7+1}{2}=\frac{8}{2} = 4$

The median is the value in the $4^{th}$ position.

Therefore, the Median of the given data is 28.
