How can one determine the median of a data set?

The median is also the number that is halfway into the set. To find the median, the data should be arranged in order from least to greatest. If there is an even number of items in the data set, then the median is found by taking the mean (average) of the two middlemost numbers

One can determine the median of a data set by ordering the data points and finding the middle value of the set. Hope this helps
