Step 1. Put the numbers in order, from least to greatest or greatest to least doesn't really matter.Step 2. Count the amount of numbers you have,If you have an Odd amount of numbers go to Step A.If you have an Even Amount of numbers got to Step B.Step A. So you have and Odd amount of numbers like 3 numbers or 5 numbers e.g.(16, 18, 20) you just take the number in the middle and that's your median in this case (18). but if you have like 201 numbers the median is going to be the 101th number when the numbers are in order.Step B. So you have an Even amount of numbers, okay so this is what you do. Take the two middle numbers(1, 5, 8, 9, 19, 59) in this case 8 and 9. and add them together you get 17 then you divide by 2 so the answer would be 17/2 = 8.5. that is it. just add the two middle numbers and divide by 2.Step Z. That's it your done
