Final answer:

The median corresponds to the 50th percentile.

Step-by-step explanation:

The median corresponds to the 50th percentile.

The median is the middle value of a set of data when the data is arranged in numerical order. It divides the data into two halves, with 50% of the data values below the median and 50% above the median. In other words, the median is the value below which 50% of the data falls.
