Answer:

The median is 6.5

Explanation:

To find the median, first organize the numbers from least to greatest:

1, 4, 6, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

The median is always the number in the middle, but since there are eight numbers here, there will be two numbers in the middle: 6 and 7.

To solve for this, we have to find the average of the numbers.

Add the two numbers together and then divide by 2 (we divide by 2 because we are averaging two numbers).

(6 + 7)/2

13/2

6.5
