Hello! I have a question about Medians! My question is: How do I find the median in a range of numbers like this:

1, 2, 5, 5, 7, 9

So I know the median would be somewhere between the two fives, but how would I find it? Or would the median be five?

Thank you!

The median would be 5 : )
Thank you sooooo much! You have no idea how helpful that was!
In a data set like that, you find the middle TWO numbers, add 'em up, and divide it by 2. (In other words, find the mean of the the two.) 5 + 5 = 10
10 ÷ 2 = 5
Since both are the same number, it doesn't matter.
