To find the median, you first need to arrange the numbers in ascending order. For your data set \( \{3, 3, 3, 5, 6, 6\} \), since there are six numbers (an even count), the median will be the average of the two middle values, which are the third and fourth numbers in the sorted list: \(3\) and \(5\). Thus, the median is \( \frac{3+5}{2} = 4\). When working with odd or even numbers of data points, it’s important to remember that the median is the “middle” number or average of the middle numbers. One common mistake is overlooking the order; always sort your data first. If you misplace a value, it could affect your median considerably!
