First, you want to put all the numbers in order from least to greatest.
21, 33, 33, 42, 67, 79, 89
Now, you can use this song to help remember how to do these problems.
Cross off the sides till you get to the center. 1 is good, 2 is bad. (If you get two numbers in the middle) add then divide by two.
Cross off 21, then 89, then 33, then 79, then 33, then 67. Now, you're left with 42 in the middle. That is your median. Hope this helps! :)

The **median **of the **data **set 42, 67, 33, 79, 33, 89, 21 is **42 **after **arranging **the **data **set in **ascending **order.
What is the median?
A **median **is a middle number in a **series **of numbers that have been **arranged **to lift, and it might be more **informative **of the set of data than the average . When there are **extremes **in the **sequences **that might affect the **average **of the numbers , the median is **sometimes **employed instead of the mean .
It is given that:
The data set is:
42, 67, 33, 79, 33, 89, 21
First, arrange the **number **in **ascending **order:
21, 33, 33, 42, 67, 79, 89
From the definition** of the middle **term representing the **median **of the **data **set 42, 67, 33, 79, 33, 89, 21
The middle term = 42
The median of the **data **set = 42
First, you want to put all the **numbers **in order from least to greatest .
Thus, the **median **of the **data **set 42, 67, 33, 79, 33, 89, 21 is **42 **after **arranging **the **data **set in **ascending **order.

To find the median of the scores 42, 67, 33, 79, 33, 89, 21, first sort them in ascending order. After sorting, the scores are 21, 33, 33, 42, 67, 79, 89, and the median is the middle score, which is 42. This process effectively identifies the central value of the data set.
