1,9,4,6,8,8 which is the median

Explanation:

Sort the values from smallest to largest. Doing so leads to the list {1,4,6,8,8,9}

Since the set is small enough, you can probably notice that the middle most number is a tie between the 6 and the first 8. The midpoint is (6+8)/2 = 14/2 = 7.

The median is 7.

If you wanted, you could cross off the first and last items of the set

That means we go from {1,4,6,8,8,9} to {4,6,8,8}

Then repeat to get the smaller set {6,8}

This shows we have a tie between the 6 and 8 as the middle most item, and why 7 is the median (since 7 is the midpoint between 6 and 8).
