Median is the number that is in the center of a distribution.

First, organize the numbers from least to greatest.

2 4 5 9 18 19 43

Then find the number that is in the center. In this case, the median is 9 because there are 3 quantities on both the left and the right.

If you have an even number of data, average the two numbers in the center.

2 6 7 8 10 18 19 25

The median is 9 because 8 and 10 split center. Average 8 and 10 to get 9.
