hello

to find the median of a given data, just pick the middle number if the data is an odd number.

But if it's an even number, pick the two middle numbers and divide by two

5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

since the data set is an even number, we'll pick the two middle numbers (7, 8) by 2


\begin{gathered} \text{median}=(7+8)/(2) \\ \text{median}=(15)/(2) \\ \text{median}=7.5 \end{gathered}
