Median

1. Arrange your numbers in numerical order.
2. Count how many numbers you have.
3. If you have an odd number, divide by 2 and round up to get the position of the median number.
4. If you have an even number, divide by 2. Go to the number in that position and average it with the number in the next higher position to get the median.

What is the formula for median of grouped data?

The formula for median in a grouped data is median=l+(n2−cff)×h, where l represent the lower limit of the median class, n represents the total sum of all frequencies, cf represent the cumulative frequency before the median class, f represent the frequency of the median class and h represents the class width.

How do you find the median example?

The median is different for different types of distribution. For example, the median of 3, 3, 5, 9, 11 is 5. If there is an even number of observations, then there is no single middle value; the median is then usually defined to be the mean of the two middle values: so the median of 3, 5, 7, 9 is (5+7)/2 = 6.
