(c) median = 37
(d) median = 19
(e) median = 4.5
(f) median = 15
(g) median = 126

(j) median = 75
Explanation:
The median of the ungrouped data is obtained by arranging the numbers from the lowest to the highest number, then select the middle number. If you have two numbers in the middle, sum the two numbers and divide it by 2.
(a) in order: 3 4 4 6 7 8 8
median = 6
(b) in order: 11 11 12 14 15 16 17
median = 14
(c) in order: 31 31 34 37 38 41 42
median = 37
(d) in order: 17 17 18 19 19 21 23
median = 19
(e) in order: 3 3 3 4 5 6 7 9
median = (4 + 5) / 2 = 4.5
(f) in order: 12 14 14 14 16 18 19 20
median = (14 + 16)/2 = 15
(g) in order: 120 121 124 128 129 131
median = (124 + 128)/2 = 126
(h) in order: 321 339 342 345 352 358 362
median = 345
(i) in order: 43 46 49 49 51 51 51 52
median = (49 + 51)/2 = 50
(j) in order: 68 70 73 74 76 77 77 81
median = (74 + 76)/2 = 75
