You can put this solution on YOUR website! First sort the numbers into ascending order (from least to greatest):
135,158,163,168,172,174,185,186,188,192,193
Now to find the median, count off about 5 spaces(it's close to half of the size of the list) until you hit the middle number. Now count count off about 5 spaces from the end of the list until you hit the middle.
135, 158, 163, 168, 172, , 185, 186, 188, 192, 193
So the median is 174
