<strong>Median</strong><br />

The median is the middle number in a set <strong>of</strong> data. The data MUST be in order<br />

before you find the median.<br />

Example 2:<br />

Find the median.<br />

21, 18, 16, 8, 23, 20<br />

First, put the numbers in order: 8, 16, 18, 20, 21, 23<br />

Now find the number in the middle.<br />

In this problem, there are two<br />

numbers in the middle…to find the<br />

median, you need to add them<br />

together and divide by 2.<br />

18<br />

20<br />

2<br />

38<br />

2<br />

19<br />

The median is 19.<br />

If you order the numbers<br />

from least to greatest or<br />

greatest to least, the<br />

same numbers will be in<br />

the middle.
