The video tutorial provides a concise explanation of the median, a statistical measure used to find the middle value in a data set. It is a fundamental concept in statistics and is crucial for understanding data distribution.

What is the median primarily used for in statistics?

• To determine the mode of a data set

• To calculate the range of a data set

• To identify the middle value in a data set

• To find the average of a data set

How do you find the median in an odd-numbered data set?

• Add all numbers and divide by the count

• Subtract the smallest number from the largest

• Select the middle number

• Choose the most frequent number

What is the first step in finding the median of a data set?

• Arrange the numbers in descending order

• Arrange the numbers in ascending order

• Calculate the sum of all numbers

• Identify the mode of the data set

In which scenario is the median more useful than the mean?

• When data is symmetrically distributed

• When data has outliers

• When data is categorical

• When data is normally distributed

Why is the median considered a robust measure of central tendency?

• It is affected by extreme values

• It is not affected by extreme values

• It is always equal to the mean

• It is the same as the mode
