Answer: 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets re- write the numbers in growing order.
2,3,4,6,7,10,10
The number that stays exactly in the middle of the the sequence is the median.
Number 6 stays in the middle. So 6 is the median
Answer
6
Step by step explanation
Given data : 4 , 3 , 2 , 10 , 10 , 6 , 7
Arranging the data in ascending order, we have,
2 , 3 , 4 , 6 , 7 , 10 , 10
Here, n ( total number of items) = 7
Now, position of median:
[tex] {( \frac{n + 1}{2}) }^{th} [/tex] item
plug the value
[tex] = {( \frac{7 + 1}{2} )}^{th} [/tex] item
Add the numbers
[tex] =( { \frac{8}{2} )}^{th} [/tex] item
Divide
[tex] = {4}^{th} [/tex] item
i.e 4th item is the median
Median = 6

Further more explanation:
Let's take another example:
please see the attached picture.
In the above series, the numbers are arranged in ascending order. Here, the fourth item 17 has three items before it and three items after it. So, 17 is the middle item in the series. 17 is called the median of the series.
Thus, Median is the value of the middle - most observation, when the data are arranged in ascending or descending order of magnitude.
