  2. Number of observations = 10
    10 is an even number. Therefore, the modian = Mean of 5th[(n/2)th] term and 6th[(n/2 + 1)th] term.
    Hence,
    Median = 1/2(5th observation + 6th observation)
    ⇒ 63 = 1/2 [(x) + (x + 2)]
    ⇒ 63 = 1/2 [2x + 2]
    ⇒ 63 = x + 1
    ⇒ x = 62
    Hence, the valueof x is 62.
