The following are the weights, in pounds, of some dogs at a kennel: 36, 45, 29, 39, 51, 49. a. find the median. b. suppose one of the weights are given in kilograms. can you still find the median? explain.

A. To find the median, you must put the weights in order from lowest to highest:
29, 36, 39, 45, 49, 51
Then you find the middle number, now in this case there are 6 weights which means that you have to find the middle number in between 39 and 45, which would be 42 (you either + 3 or - 3 to get to both numbers). So the median is 42.
B. You could still find the median, but you'd have to convert the weight back into pounds. If you were not allowed to convert the weight back into pounds, then no you couldn't find the median as all numbers have to be in the same unit.
Hope this helps!
