The median for an odd number of observations is _________ where n is the number of observations. rank on the ascending order of observations b) rank on the ascending order of observations c) Average of and (n/2) rank on the ascending order of observations d) (n/2) rank on the ascending order of observations Correct Answer rank on the ascending order of observations

Median is the fiftieth percentile of the data distribution. For the odd number of observations (n), the median is rank on the ascending order of observations. This can also be written as rank on the ascending order of observations.

There are two rows, each containing 3 numbers. Some rules are given below to be used for obtaining the resultant number for each row separately. Apply the rules for each row from left to right and answer the question. Rules: i. If an even number is followed by an even number, the first is to be subtracted from the second. ii. If an odd number is followed by an odd number, both are to be added. iii. If an odd number is followed by an even number, the even number is to be subtracted from the square of the odd number. iv. If an even number is followed by an odd number, the odd number is to be subtracted from the even number. Row I: 28, 19, 12 Row II: 13, 7, 32 What is the average of the resultant numbers of the first row and the second row?
There are two rows, each containing 3 numbers. Below are some rules to be used to get the resultant number for each row separately. Use the rule from left to right for each row and find the answer to the question. Rule: 1. If an even number is followed by an even number, then the first number will be subtracted from the second. 2. If an odd number is followed by an odd number, then both will be added. 3. If an odd number is followed by an even number, then the even number will be subtracted from the square of the odd number. 4. If an even number is followed by an odd number, then the odd number will be subtracted from the even number. Row I: 9,11, 34 Row II: 16, 9, 8 What is the difference between the resultant numbers in the first row and the second row

Questions below followed by three quantities. Find the relationship between them. Quantity I: In a class with a certain number of students if a teacher weighing 78 kg is added, then average weight of class is increased by 2 kg. If one more teacher weighing 66 kg is added, then the average weight of the class increases by 3.5 kg over the original average. What is the original average weight (in kg) of the class? Quantity II: The average age of 16 students and their teacher's age is 16 years. If the teacher's age is excluded, the average reduces by 2. What is the teacher's age? Quantity III: Average weight of three friends A, B and C is 46 kg. Another person D joins the group and now the average is 45 kg. If another person E whose weight is 6 kg more than D, joins the group replacing A, then average weight of B, C, D and E becomes 47 kg. What is the weight of A (in kg)?
