To find the median of a set of values with an even number of values, place the values in ascending or descending order, find the 2 middle numbers and add them together and divide that total by 2 and that's the median.

If its a odd set of numbers then the median will be (n+1/2)th term. where, n=set of numbers like 2,4,5 then the median will be (3+1/2)th term=2nd term=4. therefore the median is 4 And if its a even set of numbers like 1,4,7,9,6,8 then the median will be the (sum of mid numbers/2) 7+9/2=8 therefore the median is 8
The median. If there are an odd number of elements in the set, there is a middle number which is the median. If there are an even number of elements in the set, the median is the mean of the middle two numbers.
When the median has two numbers, you add the two together and divide by 2 . The median doesn't really have 'two numbers'; you are talking about finding the median of a set of numbers that contains an even number of numbers. The median is half-way between the two.
With an even number of members of the set, the median is the average of the middle two numbers, listed least to greatest.
The median of a set of numbers is the middle number when they are laid out in numerical order. When there is an even amount of numbers in the sequence like this one, there are two numbers in the middle. To find out the median from these two numbers, you just need to find the average of the two numbers. As the two numbers in the middle of this set of numbers is 53 and 54, the average is 53.5. This means that the median of this set of numbers is 53.5.
