Answer: the median and they should predict size 8

Explanation:

It is this answer because if you put the numbers in order from least to greatest and then start to find the median you will get two answers for the median and the numbers you should get are two 8 so then you add the two 8's up and then you get 16 so then you divide it by 2 and you will get 8 and that is your answer.
