nbme 6 block 4 q 6 - ana01 - ArchivalUser - 03-22-2016

Median is (n+1)/2 for odd numbers like here where we have 100 kids, so the middle value of 100 is 50,5th kid

Now look where the 50,5th so to say kid is located on your bar chart n see how many UTI did the kid get Smile
Should be 1...

Thank you @littleturtle, Answer 1. When calculatin the median here we have to start counting (to find 50.5) even the children that have 0 infections? This was what l wanted to know. Thanks.

So.....

1----25.5 >>> 0 UTI

26---55.5 >>> 1 UTI

56---65.5 >>> 2 UTI

66---100 >>> 3 UTI

U have to count the kids who had 0 episodes also
