Kole Marquez · Answer 1

The median thickness of the entire glacier is calculated with the arranging the given dimensions of the thickness from least to highest.

29, 34, 35, 36, 38, 40, 41, 43, 44, 46

The middle tern is the 5th and 6th terms which are equal to 38 and 40. Average of this cool is still 39.
