Question

The median of 20, 13, 18, 25, 6, 15, 21, 9, 16, 8, 22 is:

• A. \( 18 \)
• B. \( 16 \)
• C. \( 6 \)
• D. \( 15 \)

Hint:

The median of a set of \( n \) numbers is:
If \( n \) is odd: the middle number.
If \( n \) is even: the average of the two middle numbers.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Arranging the numbers in ascending order:
\[ 6, 8, 9, 13, 15, 16, 18, 20, 21, 22, \] Since there are 11 numbers, the median is the 6th term, which is:
\[ \mathbf{16}. \]
