Answer 1

To find the median price, we first need to arrange the prices in ascending order. The prices are:

$28, $36, $40, $30, and $28.

Arranging them in order gives us:

$28, $28, $30, $36, $40.

The median is the middle number in a sorted list. Since there are 5 prices in total, the median is the third number in this ordered list, which is:

$30.

So, the median price is **$30**.
