If x is the median the set {9/2, x,11/3, 28/9, 21/5}, x could be Select:
A) 16/5
B) 17/5
C) 21/7
D) 4
E) 31/7
The median is the middle number once all the numbers are arranged in increasing/decreasing order.   We see that   11/3 = 3.something,   28/9 = 3.something   21/5 = 4.something   9/2 = 4.something   So x should greater than the smallest two numbers and smaller than the greatest two numbers. We can see that x = 4 is possible. (First look at the simplest option or the middle option since options are usually arranged in increasing/decreasing order)   Answer (4)
