Request you to search for solutions. Most (maybe all) GMAT Prep questions are posted here and discussed on BTG.
Vineesh,
Just telling you what I know and think. I am not the expert. :)

The median is simply the middle value when you have an odd number of items or the average of the two middle items when you have an even number of items. Here you have 20 work days so the median is going to be the average of the tenth and eleventh days. Your chart tells you that both the tenth and eleventh were paid at $84 so that is your answer.
