There can be any number of sets to satisfy this. The median is the number in the middle and the mean is the average of the numbers. 2,4,6,8,30 is one possible set median = 6 mean = 10
6 is the median of 10 numbers
1,1,10,11,12
The "median" is the "number in the middle", if you sort the numbers. If (as here) the set has an even number of elements, you sort them, and then take the average (arithmetic mean) of the two numbers in the middle - in this example, the 5th and 6th number.
If the mean is 6 then the 5 numbers must total 6 * 5 = 30. Median is 7, so that leaves 4 numbers totaling 23. So we need 2 numbers less than (or equal to) 7 and 2 numbers greater than (or equal to) 7 which all add up to 23 and where the highest number minus the lowest number equals 10. So how about, 1,2,7,9,11 or 1,1,7,10,11 etc
