There are 6 numbers, so the median is the mean of the middle two:
(7 + 8) ÷ 2 = 7.5

To find the median of a set of numbers, you first need to arrange the numbers in ascending order. In this case, the numbers are already in ascending order: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. Since there is an odd number of values, the median is the middle value, which is 7. Therefore, the median of the set {5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10} is 7.
Oh, dude, the median is just the middle number when you arrange them in order. So, if we line these numbers up, we've got 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. And voilà, the median is 7! Easy peasy, right?
Well, darling, the median is the middle number when the numbers are in numerical order. In this case, the numbers are already in order, so the middle number is 7. Voila!
If 9,8,4,5,3,1 what is the median
1,1,10,11,12
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
Mean: 7 Median: 6 Mode: 6
2, 2, 5, 7, 9, 11. Mean = Median = 6 Mode = 2
If you have an even number of data points, the median is the mean of the middle two. eg, the median of {1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16} is (6 + 8) ÷ 2 = 7.
