Take the mean (or average) of the two middle numbers.
If the two numbers are the same value, then that is the median.
if you had these numbers; 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 and you crossed off all the numbers to get 4 and 5 the median would either be the number between them; 4.5 or you could say there is no median; nm hope this helps :D
It is usually the middle two numbers.
for eg 6 numbers: 1,2,3,4,5,6 median = 3+4/2 =3.5 ^ take the 2 middle numbers, add them, then divide by 2=3.5(work bellow) ^ 3+4=7 7 divided by 2= 3.5
So the median of a set of numbers, is the number which is exactly in the middle of all the numbers when sorted. So take your set of numbers, {6,7,10,8,9,8} and sort them so we get {6,7,8,8,9,10} If we work in from the left and right removing one number at a time we get: {7, 8, 8, 9} and then {8, 8} Meaning the median is 8. (When you have an even amount of numbers, you have to average the two numbers remaing (in this case 8 and 8), however when you have an odd amount of numbers you will only have 1 left, and that is the median)

You put the numbers in order. As there are 8 numbers, and even amount, the median is halfway between the two middle numbers. In this case, that is 61 and 76. The median is therefore 68.5 as it is halfway between them, or the result if you add them and divide by 2.
Add up all the numbers. Then divide by how many numbers there were.

Well, isn't that just a happy little problem to solve! To find the missing number when the median is given, you'll want to first list all the numbers in order. Then, if the median is the middle number, you can easily identify the missing number based on whether it falls before or after the median. Just remember, there are no mistakes in math, only happy little accidents!
all you have to do is find the two middle numbers, add them u, and divide by two. the answer is the median. You line the numbers up in order of lowest to highest: 1 2 3 4 5 6 To work out the median you find out the average/mean of the middle 2 numbers: 3 4 (3+4)/2 = 3.5 Therefore the median is 3.5 Or you could just work out the middle number e.g 3 and 4 the middle would 3.5
Arrange the numbers in ascending order, and then take the mean of the fourth and fifth number.
The range is the spread of data - the largest number minus the smallest. The mean, mode and median are types of average. The mean is the sum of the numbers divided by the number of numbers (e.g. the mean of 1, 1, 3, 5 and 8) is 3.6). The mode is the number that appears most often (1 for the previous example). The median is the 'middle number'. To work it out, place the numbers in order from lowest to highest. If the number of numbers is odd, the median is the number in the middle (3 for the given example). If the number of numbers is even, the median is the mean of the two middle numbers (e.g. for 1, 1, 3 and 5, the middle numbers are 1 and 3 so the median is 2). The mean and median often are similar but the mode is often greatly different to the two other averages.
The linear time median finding algorithm is a method used to find the median (middle value) of a set of numbers in linear time, meaning it runs in O(n) time complexity. The algorithm works by partitioning the input numbers into groups, finding the median of each group, and then recursively finding the median of the medians until the overall median is found. This approach ensures that the median is found efficiently without having to sort the entire set of numbers.
