Arithmetic Median is a positional average and refers to the middle value in a distribution. It spanides the series into two halves by first arranging the items in ascending or descending order of magnitude and then locating the middle value and is denoted by the symbol $ ilde{X}$ or M.

We re going to discuss methods to compute the Arithmetic Median for three types of series:

Inspanidual Data Series

When data is given on inspanidual basis. Following is an example of inspanidual series:

Items510203040506070

Discrete Data Series

When data is given alongwith their frequencies. Following is an example of discrete series:

Items510203040506070
Frequency251312057

Continuous Data Series

When data is given based on ranges alongwith their frequencies. Following is an example of continous series:
