GMAT Prep Number Properties/Sets

by drhomler » Sun Jul 29, 2007 5:00 pm
If the average of x,7,2,16 and 11 is equal to the median, What is X?

1)7<x<11
2)x is the median

Answer in a little bit.

I dont know if the problem specifies that x be an integer, but I think it does.

1. 7<x<11, then x is the median.
(36+x)/5 = x
x = 9

2. x is the median.
Same as above.

Hence, D.
