Answer:

Median is 12

Explanation:

9, 10, 4, 12, 15, 17, 18, 10, 12, 13

Sort the data

4, 9, 10, 10, 12, 12, 13, 15, 17, 18

Median position: (n+1)/2

(10+1)/2 = 5.5th value

Median:

(12+12)/2

24/2

12

Answer:

12

Explanation:

9, 10, 4, 12, 15, 17, 18, 10, 12, 13

Putting the numbers from smallest to largest

4,9, 10, 10, 12 12, 13, 15, 17, 18,

The median is the middle number

There are 10 numbers

4,9, 10, 10, 12 12, 13, 15, 17, 18,

The middle number is between the 12's, so it is 12
