Answer:

23

Explanation:

12, 65, 3, 8, 23, 64, 19, 53, 0, 24, 57, 15, 39

First put in order.

0, 3, 8, 12, 15, 19, 23, 24, 39, 53, 57, 64, 65

Eliminate each number alternating from beginning and end like so.

3, 8, 12, 15, 19, 23, 24, 39, 53, 57, 64

Keep doing until you get to the middle.

8, 12, 15, 19, 23, 24, 39, 53, 57

12, 15, 19, 23, 24, 39, 53

15, 19, 23, 24, 39

19, 23, 24

23

Since 23 is the last remaining number, that is the median.
