If mean of 25, 29, 25, 32, 24 and X is 27, then what will be the value of median ?

Given mean of the 6 numbers \(25, 29, 25, 32, 24, X\) is \(27\): \(\frac{135 + X}{6} = 27 \implies 135 + X = 162 \implies X = 27\). Arranging the 6 observations in ascending…

Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Given mean of the 6 numbers 25,29,25,32,24,X25, 29, 25, 32, 24, X is 2727: 135+X6=27  ⟹  135+X=162  ⟹  X=27\frac{135 + X}{6} = 27 \implies 135 + X = 162 \implies X = 27. Arranging the 6 observations in ascending order gives 24,25,25,27,29,3224, 25, 25, 27, 29, 32. The Median is the average of the 3rd (2525) and 4th (2727) terms: 25+272=26\frac{25 + 27}{2} = 26.
