\huge\textsf{Hey there!}


\large\text{19, 31, 15, 50, \& 20}


\large\text{When you see or hear the word \underline{median}, think of the question}\\\large\text{asking you \bf what is the MIDDLE NUMBER.}\large\text{To find the}\\\large\text{middle number you have to put the numbers from descending}\\\large\text{(least/decreasing) or ascending (greatest/increasing) order}


\large\text{15, 19, 20, 31, \& 20}


\large\text{Make sure it is even on BOTH SIDES of the DATA SET}


\large\text{It seems to be even on both sides of the number \bf 20}\large\text{ so \underline{20}}\\\large\text{can be your median/middle number in this given set}


\boxed{\boxed{\huge\textsf{Answer: the median is \bf 20}}}\huge\checkmark


\large\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}\\\\\\\\\\\frak{Amphitrite1040:)}
