Question 348384
First sort the numbers into ascending order (from least to greatest):

85,88,91,94,95,98



To find the median, count off about 3 spaces (just take half of the size of the list, which is 6) from the beginning of the list until you hit the middle. Now count count off about 3 spaces from the end of the list until you hit the middle.



85, 88, {{{highlight(91)}}}, {{{highlight(94)}}}, 95, 98



Since the middle is in between the numbers 91 and 94, add them up and divide that sum by 2.



{{{Median=(91+94)/2=185/2=92.5}}}



So the median is 92.5
