If the average of five numbers, x, 7, 2, 16, and 11 = the median, what is x?
a. 7 < x > 11
b. x is median of the five numbers

There seems to be something wrong with A.

a. 7 < x > 11

This says x is greater than 7 and greater than 11, which is repetitive.

I'm pretty sure this should say 7 < x < 11, and answer is D. I answered this question for someone else yesterday, search in forum.
