What is the median of the following numbers: 4, 9, 2, 2, 5, 2, 4? 28 4 2 5

OpenStudy (kropot72):

To find the median, the first thing to do is to arrange the numbers in numerical order in a row with the lowest to the left. Can you do that?

Nearly right. However you missed one number out of the 7 numbers in the question.

Correct. So the 7 numbers arranged in numerical order are as follows: 2, 2, 2, 4, 4, 5, 9 The median is the middle number in the sequence.
