Find the median of the data: 70, 72, 72, 74, 76, 77. a. 72 b. 73 c. 73.5 d. 75

The answer would be B. I think...but I'm not sure. Hope this helps!

Okay. The median is the middle number in the data. So we cross out numbers from the furthest left and furthest right until we come to the middle. Because we have two numbers in the middle, we have to add them up and divide them by the number of scores. In this case, we would add 72 and 74, then divide it by two. When you do that, the median is 73. The answer is B: 73.
