What is the middle value when a group of values is arranged in order from high to low?
A. Mode
B. Mean
C. Median
D. Middle average
Answer: C – The middle value, when a group of values are arranged in order from high to low, is the median.
Explanation: in mathematics and statistics, the “median” refers to the numeric value that separates the lower half of a distribution from the lower half. In general, to find the median of a list of given numbers, you would arrange the numbers from lowest to highest value and pick the middle value. If there is an even number of samples, there is no single value in the middle. Instead, the median is defined as the average (mean) of the two middle values.
