Hand volume can be determined by measuring the amount of water displaced in a beaker after the hand is dipped in it. A student read a report that the median hand-volume of college-age males is 400ml. To test whether this is true at her school, she convinced 12 of her male friends to dip their hands in a beaker of water. Her measurements (in ml) are below:
400 360 420 520 460 350 500 420 450 430 395 400
