To find the median of a data set, we first need to put the numbers in order from least to greatest:

25, 34, 40, 40, 53, 56, 60, 60, 60, 62, 75, 76

Since there are 12 numbers in the data set, the median will be the average of the 6th and 7th numbers:

(56 + 60) / 2 = 116 / 2 = 58

Therefore, the median of the data set is 58.
