How do you get the answer of a median?
take your list of numbers and put them in numerical order then count the number
Note: if you don't get a number left then you add the two numbers and divide by 2
example 1 (odd): 1 3 5 6 9 the median is 5
example 2 (even): 124679 add4+6+10 divided by 2 is 5 the median is 5

A mathematician is someone who does math as a profession and may calculate statistics or solve mathematical problems for a company or group of people. They can also just be people who are experts in math. If you are asking for examples of a mathematician, some examples could be Leonhard Euler and Carl Gauss, who aren't mentioned as much in popular media. However, a more famous one is Isaac newton.
