Create Data Given Mean and Median

Create Data Given Mean and Median

In this tutorial, we break down how to construct a set of numbers when you are given a specific mean and median. We walk through two examples: one with an odd number of values (5) and one with an even number of values (4). What you’ll learn: • How to use the median to find the "middle" of your data set. • How to use the mean to calculate the required "total sum." • The constraints you must follow so the median doesn't change when you add new numbers.
