Median means Middle Number. If a set of numbers is odd you can simply order the numbers from least to greatest and remove the first highest and the first lowest, and so on until you have one number left.

Example: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

Cross out first Highest and First Lowest

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

Continue removing the next highest and lowest.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

And Again

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

Whats the number you have left? 4. This is the median for this set of numbers.

However, this rule changes with even amount of numbers, such as the problem you have.

Follow the same steps you did before. Order the numbers least to greatest. Then begin removing the first highest and first lowest and so on. You'll notice in an even numbered problem you have 2 numbers left over. To find the median simply find the average of the two remaining numbers.

Your answer to your problem:

0.56 1.14 1.62 2.17 3.35 4.33

1.62 + 2.17 = 3.79/2 = 1.895 That is the median of your problem.
