Order them: 15 16 17 21 21 Find the middle one: 17 That is the median
21. You put them in numerical order and then find the center one.
Median is finding the center of a line of some values. The values have to list in ascending order. When there are an odd amount of numbers: the median is the middle number. Example: find the Median of {12, 3, 5}. Put them in order: {3, 5, 12}. The middle number is 5, so the median is 5. When there are an even amount of numbers: There will be two numbers in the middle; the median in this case is the mean (average) of these two. Example: find the Median of {3, 5, 7, 12, 13, 14, 21, 23, 23, 23, 23, 29, 40, 56}. There are now 14 numbers and so we have a pair of middle numbers and the middle numbers are 21 and 23. To find median: (21 + 23) ÷ 2 = 22. So the Median in this example is 22.
The median is 27.
The median is the number in the middle. First put the numbers in order:18, 21, 24, 37.Because there are an even number of numbers, there are two numbers in the middle: 21 and 24. The median is the average of these numbers : (21+24)/2 = 22.5.
