Question

What is the median of 18, 14, 6, 7, 8?

• A. 7
• B. 8
• C. 6
• D. 14

Hint:

To find the median, first sort the numbers in ascending or descending order, and then pick the middle value.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The median is the middle number in a set of numbers when they are arranged in ascending or descending order. Step 1: Arrange the numbers in ascending order: \[ 6, 7, 8, 14, 18 \] Step 2: The middle number is 8, so the median is 8. Thus, the median of the numbers 18, 14, 6, 7, 8 is \( 8 \).
