first put them in ascending numerical order
2, 14, 15, 19, 22, 21, 26, 27, 23, 30, 32, 34, 38
Then start to eliminate numbers by pair (the farthest number from each side) until you get to 1 or two numbers left (in the very middle)
in this case you will be left with 26, which means that the median is 26
