Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

When an even number of scores (N = 50) is arranged in ascending order of magnitude, there is no single middle score. The median lies halfway between the two middle ranks—specifically, the arithmetic mean (average) of the (N/2)th = 25th score and the (N/2 + 1)th = 26th score.
