Given the set of numbers:

22, 24, 20, 18, 14, 16, 23 and 12

Let's find the median.

The median of a set of numbers is the middle number when the numbers are arranged from the least to the greatest.

Arrange the numbers from the least to greatest, we have:

12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 23, 24

The middle numbers are:

18 and 20

Since we have two middle numbers, the median will be the average of the two middle numbers:


(18+20)/(2)=(38)/(2)=19

Therefore, the median of the sizes of shirts is 19.
