There are 9 numbers, so the median is the 5th one, which is 4.

I believe the median here is 4.5 since there are two middle numbers, 4 and 5. That sounds right based on what we learned!

Wait, do I add the two middle numbers together and then divide by 2? I’m not completely sure about that part.

I think we practiced a similar question where we had to find the median of a set of numbers. I feel like it was around 4 or 4.5.

I remember that the median is the middle value, but I’m not sure how to find it with an even number of values.

Wait, I'm confused. If there are multiple values that appear the same number of times, how do I determine the median? I don't want to get this wrong.

This looks straightforward. The numbers are already mostly in order, so the median should be one of the middle values. I'll just count them out and select the right answer.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. The question says the "median" but there are multiple values that appear more than once. Does that change how I find the median?

Okay, I think I've got this. The median is the middle value in a sorted list, so I just need to put these numbers in order and find the middle one.

Haha, this is like a trick question. The median is clearly 4.5, but who chooses 4.5 on a multiple-choice exam?

No way, the median is definitely 5. There are more 5s than any other number.

Actually, the median is 4.5. It's the average of the two middle numbers, 4 and 5.
