Question

Another measure of central tendency for a set of data is called the midrange. The midrange is defined as the value that is halfway between the minimum data value and the maximum data value. That is,

Midrange = 
minimum value + maximum value
2
.

The midrange is often stated as the average of a set of data in situations in which there are a large amount of data and the data are constantly changing. Many weather reports state the average daily temperature of a city as the midrange of the temperatures achieved during that day. For instance, if the minimum daily temperature of a city was 60° and the maximum daily temperature was 90°, then the midrange of the temperatures is 

60° + 90°
2
 = 75°.



Find the midrange of the following daily temperatures,which were recorded at three-hour intervals. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

55°, 50°, 80°, 57°, 72°, 64°, 58°, 63°, 73°
