If the range is 4 and the median is 6, this means that the numbers are evenly spread out around the median. The median is the middle number when the numbers are organized in ascending order.
Since the range is 4, we know that the difference between the largest and smallest numbers is 4.
If the median is 6, the missing number must be equidistant from 6 as the other two numbers are from 6.
Therefore, the missing number is 6 + 2 = 8.
