  1. List Push-ups Ascending Order: List the number of push-ups Allie did each day in ascending order.\newlineMonday: 88 push-ups\newlineTuesday: 1414 push-ups\newlineWednesday: 1818 push-ups\newlineThursday: 66 push-ups\newlineFriday: 88 push-ups\newlineOrdered list: 66, 88, 88, 1414, 1818
  2. Determine Median Number: Determine the median number of push-ups. The median is the middle number in a sorted, ascending or descending, list of numbers. Since there are 55 days of push-ups, the median will be the third number in the ordered list.
  3. Find Third Number: Find the third number in the ordered list to determine the median.\newlineOrdered list: 6,8,8,14,186, 8, 8, 14, 18\newlineThe third number is 88.\newlineThe median number of push-ups is 88.
