The median is the middle-most number. First we need to put the numbers in order from lowest to highest:
81 84 88 94 94 96
The easiest way to find the median is to cross out the first and last number and then continue until you reach the middle.
So cross out 81 and 96:
84 88 94 94 are left.
Cross out 84 and 94:
88 and 94 are left.
Since we are left with 2 different numbers, we need to find the average of them and that’s our median. (88 + 94)/2 = 91
91 is the median.
