    Question

    The weights (in kg) of 7 cousins in a family are 54, 62, 65, 70, 60, 59, 55.
    Find the median weight.

    A.

    60 kg

    B.

    61 kg

    C.

    61.5 kg

    D.

    70 kg

    Correct option is A

    Given:

    The weights (in kg) are: 54, 62, 65, 70, 60, 59, 55.

    Concept Used:

    The median is the middle value when the data is arranged in ascending order.

    Solution:

    Arranging the weights in ascending order:
    54, 55, 59, 60, 62, 65, 70

    Since there are 7 observations (odd number), the median is the 4th value.

    Thus, Median = 60 kg.
