Answer:

2

Explanation:

The median is the middle number when the numbers are lined up from least to greatest or greatest to least.

First, the numbers must be lined up from least to greatest.

0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6

Then, find the middle number.

The middle number is 2.

The median is 2
Median = Middle

First, arrange the numbers from lowest -> highest

This would be:
0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6

Now, strike off one number from each side (so 0, then 6, then 0, then 5) until you are only left with one or two numbers.

If you are left with one number, that is your median!

If you are left with two numbers, than you add them together, then divide that number by 2 (for example if you were left with 7 and 8, 7+8=15. 15/2=7 1/2)

In this case, you are left with one number, 2, so 2 is your median.
I hope this helped!
