Before finding the median, the data must first be
Aadded together
Brounded off fully
Cgrouped by colour
Darranged in order
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. arranged in order
1. The median is the middle value by position.
2. Position only makes sense after the values are sorted.
3. So arrange them from smallest to greatest first.
Adding, grouping by colour or rounding does not locate a middle.
