Answer: 4
Median is also known as a/the middle number after arranging the numbers in ascending order.
That is,

1,2,2,2,3,5,6,7,8,8

As u can see
If you cancel each numbers from front to back, you’ll be left with the numbers:
3 and 5

What you’ll do next if u have two numbers like this, is to add them and divide by 2.(because they are 2 numbers)
I.e,
3+5=8/2=4
Therefore, the answer is 4.
