Sean has the following data:
\[
488 \quad 493 \quad 495 \quad k \quad 489
\]
If the median is 489 , which number could \( k \) be?
\[
\underline{488} \quad \underline{726}
\]
The options for k are: \( k=488 \)
Step 1 :Sort the given data: 488, 489, 493, 495, k
Step 2 :Since the median is 489, then k <= 489
Step 3 :The options for k are: \( k=488 \)
