Answer:

Explanation:

the median is the middle number....but first u have to put the numbers in order from least to greatest

56,56,58,60,65.....and the median (the middle number) = 58 <==

and just so you know...it is easy to find the middle number when there is an odd number of numbers...but when there is an even number of numbers, there will be 2 middle numbers.....so then u add the two middle numbers and divide by 2 to get the median
