(A) The median of the data set 
(B) The median of the data set 
Which is the greater quantity?
(A) The median of the data set
(B) The median of the data set
Each data set has five elements; the median is the element in the middle after the elements are arranged in ascending sequence, which both are. In each case, the median will be the third-highest element. Since in both data sets, this element is 100, the medians are equal.

Give the median of the data set
The median of a data set with an even number of elements is the mean of the two elements in the middle when they are arranged in ascending order. The data set has six elements, so the median is the mean of the third-highest and third-lowest elements:

Find the median of the data set above.
Find the median of the data set above.
To find the median of a data set, you have to put the set in order from least to greatest
. Then cross out one number from each side until you are left with the middle number, or the median. In this case, it's 10.
