Median is the middle value. To find the median, first write the number in ascending order.
2, 5, 9, 10, 15, 20, 20, 60
The numbers in the middle are 10 and 15. Therefore add 10 and 15 together then divide by 2.
(10+15)/2 = 12.5
The median of the data set is 12.5.

Answer:

Median = 12.5

Explanation:

Median is the middle number of the data set from least to greatest.

Reorder the set from least to greatest:

2, 5, 9, 10, 15, 20, 20, 60

Median = (10+15)/2 = 12.5
