To find the median you must first arrange the numbers from smallest to largest.

Then you need to get to the middle number which turns out to be

  and  

To find what the median is of this you must find the average of the two numbers:

Therefore  is your median.

Median is the middle number in the set. There are seven numbers in the set. So, if we cross out a number on each end, we will only have  remaining. This is our answer. 

When finding median, we first arrange from smallest to largest. We now have . Since we have six numbers in the set, we will cross out a number on each end. We only are left with . When having even amount of numbers in the set, we just take the average of the two numbers.

To find the median of a set of numbers, you arrange the numbers in ascending order and locate the middle number.  

From our set of numbers

We will arrange them in ascending order.  

We get

Now, we find the number located in the middle or center.  

That number is 5.

Therefore, the median is 5.

Find the median of the following data set:

Median is the middle value when the terms are arranged in ascending order. 

Begin by ordering the terms from smallest to greatest:

Next, find the number in the middle. In this case, it is simply 36. Meaning that our answer is 36.

The median is the middle, so write the list in order:

 4, 5, 8, 18, 20

There are 5 numbers, so the middle will be the 3rd number or 

So, 8 is the median.

To solve, simply order the numbers and find the one equidistant from the minimum and maximum. Thus, the answer is .

Find the median of the following set of numbers:

Median is found by ordering the number set from least to greatest, and then picking out the middle value or averaging the two middle values (if there is an even number of terms in the set).

So our set becomes:

So our two middle values (because we have 12 terms total, we need to find the average of the middle two) are:

So, let's average them:

So we have 39 as our answer

Median means the middle of a sorted set of numbers. That is, it is the exact middle of a set of numbers. 

In order to solve for median, we must allign the numbers in order in increasing value.

This number set will become:

As you cross out one number from each side, you will eventually be left with the remaining number if there is an odd number of numbers. If there is an even number of numbers, the median will be the average of the last two remaining numbers. 

Because there is an odd number of numbers in the data set, 74 is the remaining number and therefore the median of the set.

Median means the middle of a sorted set of numbers. That is, it is the exact middle of a set of numbers. 

In order to solve for median, we must allign the numbers in order in increasing value.

This number set will become:

As you cross out one number from each side, you will eventually be left with the remaining number if there is an odd number of numbers. If there is an even number of numbers, the median will be the average of the last two remaining numbers. 

By omitting the smallest and largest numbers, we're left with two remaining times. The median will be the exact middle of these two numbers, therefore it will be the mean of the two numbers.
