Answer 2

Put them in order from least to greatest

Then take the middle two add them together and divide by 2

Answer 3

The median is the middle value once you list them in order , if you have an odd # of values. If you have an even number of values, like you do here, you have to average the 2 middle values.

Answer 7

Are you able to list the values in either ascending or descending order? There are four values.

Answer 8

Once you list the values in order, take the 2 middle values. Add them. Then divide by 2. The answer is indeed among the choices.

Answer 9

Do I add the 4 different amounts up

Answer 10

I took $49,250 + $56,000= $105,200

Answer 11

Then I divided $105,200 by 2 =52,600

Answer 13

You take just the 2 middle values. That part of what you did was fine for the left-side of the equation, but you didn't add them correctly. Check again.
