Finding Median of a set of Numbers
The median is the "middle" number in a list of
numbers. To find the median, your
numbers have to be listed in numerical order,(from
least to greatest).
Finding Median
Example: A student has gotten the following grades on his
tests: 100, 70, 80, 90, and 100
80 is the number in the middle, so the median grade is 80
Sometimes there might be two numbers in the middle.
You can find the mean or average of the two middle numbers and that will
be your median number. Example chart below
