A)80.5
You find the median by putting all the numbers in order and choosing the one in the middle. If there are two in the middle, add them together and divide by 2.

a 80.5 just place the numbers in order and find the middle value. In a case like this where the middle value is between two numbers, find the mean or average of those two number. Hope that helps!
