Here, middle term is  open parentheses 165 over 2 close parentheses to the power of th or 82.5th obser vation, which lies in class 30-40.
Thus, we have
Median class = 30 - 40 l = 30,

straight n over 2 equals 82.5 comma space straight c. straight f. space equals space 67 comma space straight f space equals space 58 space and space straight h space equals 10

Putting these values in the formula of median, we get

Median space equals l plus space open parentheses fraction numerator begin display style straight n over 2 end style minus straight c. straight f. over denominator straight f end fraction close parentheses cross times straight h
space space space space space space space space equals space 30 plus open square brackets fraction numerator 82.5 minus 67 over denominator 58 end fraction close square brackets cross times 10
space space space space space space space space equals space 30 plus fraction numerator 15.5 over denominator 58 end fraction cross times 10
space space space space space space space space space equals space 30 plus fraction numerator 15.5 over denominator 58 end fraction cross times 10
space space space space space space space space space equals space 30 plus 155 over 58
space space space space
        = 3. + 2.67 = 32.67
Hence, median = 32.67
