Session 2, Part D:
The Median
In This Part: From Ordered Lists and Line Plots | From Cumulative Frequency Tables
|
You can also use a cumulative frequency table to find the median of the raisin count:
The first position contains raisin count 25, the third position contains count 26, and so on.
|
|
| |
 |
Problem D5 |  |
According to the cumulative frequency table, what count is in the second position?
|
|
|
| |
|
Problem D6 | |
The sixth position corresponds to a box containing 27 raisins. How many raisins are in the boxes in the fourth and fifth positions? |
|
|
 |
How many raisins are in the third position? Why can't this be the same as the number of raisins in the fourth position? Close Tip |

|
Problem D7 | |
How would you use the cumulative frequency table to find the median? |
|
|
|
First find the position in which the median is located (see Problem D1). Then look for the corresponding number on the table. Close Tip |
