Hey there!

To find your mean you have to put the numbers from descending (least/decreasing) to ascending (greater/increasing) order

Median is also understood as the “middle number”

2, 8, 6, 10, 4, 12​

= 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12

Based on that information, you have in your new data set you have 2 pairs in the middle (6 & 8), so you’ll have to total/average of the number. We have to DIVIDE them by 2 because it’s 2 numbers

6 ends the descending set and 8 starts the ascending set

Median = 6 + 8 / 2

6 + 8 = 14

= 14/2

= 7

Answer: therefore your MEDIAN is most likely 7

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
