The Median is the number in the middle when the series are sorted from smallest to gratest
ex) 33, 37, 33, 31, 41, So the answer would be 33
Smallest to gratest: 31, 33, 33, 37,41,

you put the numbers in order from least to greatest
begin crossing the number out on one side one at a time and the do the same to the other side (for ex. you would cross one out on one side and go to the other and cross one out repeat this step)
the middle number is the median
if u have two numbers in the middle
add the two numbers together and divide by 2 and that gives you the median
when there are extreme values in the data
Median
Let the data set be 3,4,5,6,7,8. First put the data in rank order ; already done!!!! To find the MEDIAN , we tak the two middle numbers, '5' & '6' in this case. Then (5 + 6) / 2 = 11/2 = 5.5 5.5 is the Median.
the midpoint of the data set
No, a data set cannot have more than one median. The median is defined as the middle value of a sorted data set, or the average of the two middle values if the data set has an even number of observations. While a data set can have repeated values, the median itself remains a single value that represents the central tendency of the data.
