Answer: Median = 46

The data given results in this list

{23,27, 32,32,36,36, 46,49, 51,55,58,59, 63}

The middle most value is 46 since there are 6 items below it {23,27,32,32,36,36} and 6 items above it {49,51,55,58,59,63}.

It might help to cross off the outer values and work your way in so you can spot the middle value easier.

Answer:

46

Explanation:

Lets arrange the numbers first

23, 27, 32, 32, 36, 38, 46, 49, 51, 55, 58, 59, 63

so find how many numbers there are

- 13

the middle number of 13 is 7

so the 7th number should be the median of this sum

7th number - 46

Answer - 46

Hope you understand

:-)
