How to calculate the median
Arrange all similar data in order of size. If the number of data is odd, the middle data is the median of this set of data.

If the number of data is even, the arithmetic mean of the middle two data is the median of this set of data. Examples are as follows: Find the median of this set of data: 23, 29, 20, 32, 23, 2 1, 33, 25. Solution: First, arrange this set of data (in descending order here) and get: 20,21,23,23,25,29,32,33. Because this group of data * * * consists of 8 data, that is, n is an even number, according to the calculation method of median, the median 24, that is, the fourth number and the fifth number, is obtained.
