The points scored by a Kabaddi team in a series of matches are as follows: 17, 2, 7, 27, 15, 5, 14, 8, 10, 24, 48, 10, 8, 7, 18, 28 Find the median of the points scored by the team.

Solution: First, we have to arrange data in ascending order.
After arranging our data becomes,
$2,5,7,7,8,8,10,10,14,15,17,18,24,27,28,48$
Median can be obtained by calculating the mean of middle terms.
Here, the total number of terms, $n=16$
So, Middle terms will be ${\left(\frac{n}{2}\text{and}\frac{n}{2}+1\right)}^{th}$ terms.
Here, Middle terms are $8^{th}\text{and}{9}^{th}$ terms.
So, Median $=\frac{10+14}{2}=12$
