data set:
17, 35, 20, 18, 29, 26

Answer 1

The median is 23

To find the median, you have to put the numbers in the set in order, then find the middle one.

Your set, ordered: 17, 18, 20, 26, 29, 35

And when they give you a set with an even number of entries, like this one, you average the two middle numbers. In this case, it's 20 and 26.

20 + 26 = 46

46/2 = 23
