The answer is 5.48 because the middle numbers are 5.44 and 5.52 so what you do is find the mean or average of the two numbers by adding them together then dividing them by two, so:
(5.44 + 5.52) / 2 = 5.48
Okay so first of all we need to know the definition of our median first* median: Given any group of numbers we put the numbers in order from least to greatest then find the number that's right in the middle. Here ill show you how we do it:) <span>3.60, 3.80, 5.44, 5.52, 5.72, 7.22? its already in order for us:) but when we find the middle number it turns out that we have two middle numbers:/ simple:) all we do is take the two numbers add them together and divide by two since our middle numbers are 5.44 and 5.52 we are going to use these:) first add! 5.44 + 5.52 = 10.96 now divide that by 2 10.96 </span>÷ 2 = 5.48 so our median for this set of numbers is 5.48! hope this helps;)
Step-by-step explanation: It's quite simple, really. You divide 20 by 4, (the number of pencils and the ratio number) and then you multiply whatever the quotient was by the ratio number for erasers.
