Median is the middle number in a set of data.
We can see that 8 is less than 30 and 32 is more than 30.
Therefore, the middle value remains unchanged. Hence, the median of 21 observations taken together is 30.
Thus, the median of 21 observations taken together is 30, i.e., the given statement is true so the correct option is 1.
