When finding the median of an even set of values...U have to take the average of the middle two digits
Only for an odd set of values will the median be the middle digit

15 10 5 -1 -2 -5

median=5-1/2=4/2=2

Thanks
I was arranging the numbers as -1, -2, -5, 5, 10, 15 and calculating the median as 0 - too much anxiety I guess :lol:
