Out of 12 observations arranged in ascending order, the sixth and seventh observations are 14 and 15 respectively. Find the median of all the 12 observations.

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The total number of observations is n = 12 (an even number).The formula for the median when n is even is the average of the (\frac{n}{2})^{th} and (\frac{n}{2} + 1)^{th} observations: Median = \frac{6 ^{th} observation + 7 ^{th} observation}{2} Median = \frac{14 + 15}{2} = \frac{29}{2} = 14.5
