The median is the middle name.

If you have two middles, the median is the average of them.

So you have 2 middles, 10 and 12.

The average of 10 and 12 is given by (10+12)/2=11

Answer 2

Hello There!

The median is the middle number of the data set so let’s find it!

Step 1. Order your numbers from least to greatest so after we have done that, our numbers would be 2,2,5,10,12,13,18,24

Step 2. We want to cross of a number at the beginning so Starting with 2 and the last number 18 and do that either until we get to one number in the middle or two numbers.

Step 3. There is no one number in the middle but we have the numbers 10 and 12 so we add them together which gives us a sum of 22 and then divide 22 by 2 and we get a quotient of 11.

Our median is 11.
