Options:

12:30

12:00

13:00

13:30

Correct Answer:

13:00

Explanation:

Office time is between 9 AM and 5 PM,

9:00, 10:00, 11:00, 12:00, 13:00, 14:00, 15:00, 16:00, 17:00

n = 9 (odd number)

Median number = [\(\frac{n + 1}{2}\)]th = [\(\frac{9 + 1}{2}\)]th = 5th

5th term is 13:00

Median is 13:00
