What is the median of the following list of numbers: 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, and 12?

In order to find the median of any given list, we need to check if the numbers are arranged in ascending order. In this case, the given numbers are already arranged in order. Secondly, we need to check if the total number of entries in the list is even or odd. Since the total number of entries in this list is 6, and 6 is an even number, the median of this list equals the average of two entries that are in the middle of this list.
Median = \(\frac{7+9}{2} = 8\)
