Answer:

2140

Explanation:

Median can be described as the number that lies in the middle of a set of arranged observations. the observations can be arranged in ascending or descending order

in a set of 5 numbers, the median would be the 3rd number

the median is 2141. there was to be 2 numbers before and after 2141

1956, x 2141, 2250, 2647

the largest possible value of x is 2140. this is the largest number that is less than 2140
