What is the median of 37, 39, 40, 42, 42, 45, 48, 49, 51, 52?

Answer (2)

To find a median, first order the numbers from least to greatest, or vice versa. Then, the middle number in that sorted list is the median.
But, this list is already sorted. So, the median is 42 & 45.
Technically, the answer is 42 & 45.
The middle of 42 & 45, however, is 43.5
Hope this helped!
