Answer:

Median = 12

Explanation:

12, 11, 14, 14, 14, 12, 7

Arranging the given data in ascending order, we find:

7, 11, 12, 12, 14, 14, 14

Here,

Number of observations (N) = 7


\therefore \: (N + 1)/(2) = (7 + 1)/(2) = (8)/(2) = 4 \\ \\ median \: = 4th \: term \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{median = 12}}

Median is the Middle number

1. Sort the numbers until they are all in value order

2. Find the middle number

So the answer would be 12
