The median length of all pregnancies will be 266 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the length of human pregnancies varies normally with a mean of 266 days and a standard deviation of 16 days. We are asked to find the median length of all pregnancies.

We know that mean, median and mode all are equal for normal distribution.

Since we are told that the length of human pregnancies varies normally, therefore, the median length of all pregnancies will be same as mean that is 266 days.
