Statistical Median Part II

Statistical Median: Learn

The statistical median is middle number of a group of numbers that have been arranged in order by size. If there is an even number of terms, the median is the mean of the two middle numbers.

It is a common measure of central tendency, along with median and mean.

To find the median of a group of numbers:

  • Arrange the numbers in order by size.
  • If there is an odd number of terms, the median is the center term.
  • If there is an even number of terms, add the two middle terms and divide by 2.

Examples:

The mode of the numbers 1, 2, 6, 7, 9 is 6

The mode of the numbers 1, 2, 6, 7, 7, 9 is 6.5 (mean of 6 and 7)
