It would be nice if you explained.

Ok so you put the numbers in order from least to greatest so it would be 0,1,2,4,4,5,5,24 and then you find the middle number which is the median and it would be both 4,4 so the answer is 4 but if it was two different numbers u would have to find the average by adding up up and dividing by two to find the answer so the answer for your problem is the second one 4, median
