First put the numbers in order from least to greatest

3, 13, 14, 16, 27, 37, 42, 64, 95, 97

Median means middle so find the middle number by deleting the least and greatest number in each "layer"

3, 13, 14, 16, 27, 37, 42, 64, 95, 97

13, 14, 16, 27, 37, 42, 64, 95

14, 16, 27, 37, 42, 64

16, 27, 37, 42

27, 37

You have two numbers left. To find the middle take the mean of these two numbers, by adding them together then dividing the sum by two

27 + 37 = 64

64 / 2 = 32

32 is the median!!!

Hope this helped!
