Set A consists of numbers {-2,27.5,-6, 18.3,9} and set B consists of numbers {-199, 0.355, 19.98,10,201,16}. The median of set B is how much greater than that of A?

This time no answer choice also :P

The Answer must be 4

Series A in Ascending order : -6, -2, 9, 18.3, 27,5 --> median = 9
Series B in Ascending order : -199, 0.355, 10, 16, 19.98, 201 --> Median = (10+16)/2=13

Hence, [spoiler]13-9 = 4[/spoiler]
