It is 40.5, the number halfway between them.

Median means "half of the numbers are above and half are below". With only two numbers we just split the difference.

In this case the Median and the Mean are the same number - but this is not always the case.

If our numbers were 43, 38, 33, 46 the Median would still be 40.5 but the Mean would be 40
