Go halfway between the two. If your two medians are, say, 27 and 29, the median is 28 :)
Then all you do is add those two medians and then divide them by 2.
If there is an even number of data points in a set, there will two numbers which "share" the position of being the median; in this case the numbers are added together and the result divided by 2, to give the median for that set.
If you have an even set of data then there are two middle numbers or medians. Average those two and create a median. Example: 2,3,4,7,9,10 4 and 7 are in the middle. (4+7)/2=5.5 5.5 is the median even though it is not one of the numbers in the data set.
Usually you would take the mean of the two numbers. (Add them together and then divide by 2).

In a box and whisker plot, there should only be one median, which represents the middle value of the data set. If you see two lines or marks that appear to represent medians, it could indicate that the data set is split, possibly due to a grouping or a categorical variable. In such cases, you should clarify the context of the data and consider whether you are looking at two separate distributions. If necessary, calculate the median for each group separately to accurately represent the data.
If you have two medians in a dataset, it means that you have an even number of data points. In this case, the two medians would be the middle two values when the data points are arranged in ascending order. To find the median in this scenario, you would typically take the average of these two middle values. This approach ensures that the median accurately represents the central tendency of the dataset.

put the set of numbers in order then the number in the middle is you median but if there is two medians then add those two together then divide it by two example: 7 and 8 are the medians then add which is 15 then divide by 2 the answer is 7.5 and this is your median

If the two medians you have are the same then that will be your answer but in the case of two different medians you will need to find the middle of them. e.g. if u have 13 and 15 your answer will be 14 because it is exactly in the middle but for two medians such as 7 and 10 your median will be 7.5
you add the two medians together and divide them by 2
If you have 2 medians, add them together, and divide by 2.
The median is the middle number of any given set when they are in order, least to greatest. If there is an even number of values, the median is the average of the middle two.
In a set of data, there is always one median, which represents the middle value when the data is sorted in order. If the dataset has an odd number of values, the median is the single middle number. If the dataset has an even number of values, the median is calculated as the average of the two middle numbers. Thus, regardless of the dataset's size, there is always one median.
