Arrange the numbers in ascending order
If there is an odd number of values, the median is the middle number
If there is an even number of values, the median is the average of the two middle numbers
For grouped data, find the median class and use the median formula
For a data set with repeated values, count all values in order and locate the middle position
If needed, use the position formula: median position = (n + 1) / 2
If needed for even data sets, use the two middle positions: n / 2 and (n / 2) + 1
