Solution

To find the median of a data set, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Arrange the data in ascending order: 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 8, 9, 9, 10.
  2. Determine if the number of data points is odd or even. In this case, there are 9 data points, which is odd.
  3. Since the number of data points is odd, the median is the number that falls exactly in the middle when the data is arranged in ascending order. In this case, the fifth number is 8.
  4. Therefore, the median of this data set is 8.
