+Once the numbers are ordered, the median is the value in the middle. In this case, the median is <em>187</em>.
 
+#### Example 2
+Find the median value for the set below.<br/>
+<em>205 211 183 211 180 194</em>
 
+##### Step 1. Sort the numbers in order.<br/>
+After it is sorted, you will have <em>180 183 194 205 211 211</em>.
+
+##### Step 2. Find the median value.<br/>
+In this case, there are two middle numbers (<em>194</em> and <em>205</em>). To find the median, we will look for the average of the two middle values. The median is (<em>194</em> + <em>205</em>) / 2 = <em>199.5</em>.
