$15$ , $51$ , $8$ , $16$ , $43$ , $34$ , $27$ , $11$ , $8$ , $39$

Step 1

Arrange the terms in ascending order.

$8, 8, 11, 15, 16, 27, 34, 39, 43, 51$

Step 2

The median is the middle term in the arranged data set. In the case of an even number of terms, the median is the average of the two middle terms.

$\frac{16 + 27}{2}$

Step 3

Remove parentheses.

$\frac{16 + 27}{2}$

Step 4

Add $16$ and $27$ .

$\frac{43}{2}$

Step 5

Convert the median $\frac{43}{2}$ to decimal.

$21.5$
