Answer:

The median is 8.5

Explanation:

Step 1: Determine the median

The median of the data set is also known as the middle of the data set. But first we need to sort the data set in an ascending order.

{7, 6, 9, 10, 8, 11}

{6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11}

Since there are 6 numbers, that means that we will need to find the middle ground between numbers 3 and 4. We can do this by finding the average: (8 + 9) / 2 = 8.5

Answer: The median is 8.5
