1.	The median ofa set of 9 distinct observations is 20. If each of the largest 4 observationsof the set is increased by 2, find the median of the resulting set
Answer» Given, Median of Nine observations = 20 Median of 9 observations = 9+1/2 th term = 5th term. Now, Fifth term = 20 The last term or the largest four are increased by 2 .But the fifth term is unchanged. The median of resultant set is same as the earlier. Hence median of resultant set = 20

Answer»

Given, Median of Nine observations = 20

Median of 9 observations = 9+1/2 th term = 5th term.

Now, Fifth term = 20

The last term or the largest four are increased by 2 .But the fifth term is unchanged.

The median of resultant set is same as the earlier.

Hence median of resultant set = 20
