The accompanying frequency table indicates the grades on the math midterm in Ms. Dennis' class. In which interval does the median of the data lie?
**Frequency Table**
| Interval | Tally | Frequency |
|----------|-------|-----------|
| 96-100 | V | 5 |
| 91-95 | I | 1 |
| 86-90 | VIIII | 9 |
| 81-85 | IIII | 4 |
| 76-80 | II | 2 |
| 71-75 | IIII | 4 |
Answer (2)
The median falls in the interval 86-90
The median of the data lies in the interval 86-90, as it corresponds to the 13th student when all grades are ordered. This was determined by calculating the total number of students and finding the cumulative frequencies. The cumulative frequency helps identify which interval contains the median value.
