If you order the numbers from the higher to the lowest, the median is the number separating the lower half of the numbers from the higher half of the numbers in the set. If you have an odd number of elements in the set then the median is in the middle of this descending ordered numbers. If you have an even number of elements then, in order to determine the median, you calculate the mean of the two middle values.

What does median means on a calculator?
The median of a set of numbers in the number that is exactly center. For example, if 1,2,3,4,5,6,&7 were a set of numbers that you were asked to find the median of, 4 would be the correct answer. To find the median, one must order the number from least to greatest and cross out all the numbers until you find the center. In such case that you are asked to find the median in a set of number that has a even amount such as 1,2,3,&4, one would have to add together 2 an 3 then divide the product by 2.
How do you find the median in a set of numbers?
List the numbers from least to greatest. Then cancel the numbers out from the left to right.Example0,1,2,3,4,5,6answer=3
What set of numbers has the median of 10.5?

How do you find the median when there are 6 numbers?
you find the two numbers in the middle and add them. divide the sum by two. that's the median.
What is the median of 97 85 92 and 86?
The idea is to sort the numbers, and pick the number in the middle as the median. In cases like this, when you have two numbers in the middle (the size of the set is even), take the average of those two numbers.
