List the numbers in numerical order. You are looking for the middle number. In this case it will be the number halfway between the 4th and 5th number. Add the 4th and 5th numbers and divide them by 2, or find the number exactly halfway between the 4th and 5th numbers. So if your 4th number was 12 and your 5th number was 16, then the value halfway between them or the number that is half of the value when you add the two together is 14. That is the median.

Simply cross out numbers on each side of the set of numbers until you are left with a reamaining number. This is your Median. 1 6 8 9 7 2 1
You take those numbers and find the median number of those say you got 6 and 8, The median would be 7. If the two numbers were 6 and 6, The median would be 6. If the two numbers are 6 and 7, the median would be 6.5
The middle two numbers are 8 and 10 so the median is 9.
8 is the median of that group of numbers.
The median is 8.
