Answer

The median of the set of numbers 3, 1, 4, 1, 5, 9, 2 is 3.

Steps to find the median:

  1. Order the numbers from least to greatest: 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9.
  2. Identify the middle number. Since there are 7 numbers (an odd count), the median is the number exactly in the middle. In this ordered list, the 4th number is the middle number.

The ordered list is: 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9.
The middle number is 3.
