The data set represents the total number of tickets each person purchased for a play. 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 4,4

What is the median of the data?

Median: The middle number when all the numbers are listed in order.

First, we would put our numbers in order from least to greatest.

0 - 0 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 2 - 2 - 2 - 4 - 4

Next, we need to find the middle number. When we cross of one number from the left and one number from the right and keep doing this, we come across two numbers that are in the middle. The two numbers that are in the middle are 1 and 2. We find the median by adding 2 and 1 together to get a sum of 3 and then divide it by 2 to get an answer of 1.5

The median of this set of numbers is 1.5
