Median Definition

Median is defined as the middle term of the given set of data if the data is arranged either in ascending or descending order. Suppose we are given the weight of three girls of a class as 49 kg, 62 kg, and 56 kg then the median weight is calculated by first arranging the data in any order, let’s arrange data in ascending order as 49 kg, 56 kg, and 62 kg then by observing we can say that, 56 kg is the middle term in the given data set. So the median of the data set is 56 kg....

Median Formula

As we know median is the middle term of any data, and finding the middle term when the data is linearly arranged is very easy, the method of calculating the median varies when the given number of data is even or odd, for example, if we have 3(odd-numbered) data 1, 2, and 3 then 2 is the middle term as it has one number to its left and one number to its right....
