What is the median of the data set? 42 55 27 31 17 24 65 47 39 18

The answer would be 35

You would list the numbers in order; 17, 18, 24, 27, 31, 39, 42, 47, 55, 65. Then find the number in the middle of the set, which would be 31 and 39. Then find the mean of those two numbers so 31+39 = 70 then divide that by two. So 70/2 = 35

So your answer should be 35
