If every observation is increased by 2, the new median is 2 more than the old median.

Median of a data is 20 If each is obesrvation in the data is increased by 2 then what is the new median. Need descriptive answer?
The median of a set of values or data is the value which lies half-way along the series when it is arranged in ascending or descending order. If there are an even number of data entries then the median is the mean of the middle two values. 1) If there are an odd number of values then there will be the same number of values higher than the median as there are below the median. An increase of 2 to each member of the set does not affect the order and the existing median remains the middle placed value So, 20 becomes 22. 2) Where there are an even number of values then both middle values will increase by 2 (a total increase of 4). The median is the mean of these two values and therefore increases by 2 (as the increase of 4 ÷ 2 = 2). So, 20 becomes 22.
