Answer: B - The median of the number set above is 89.5. The median is the number that falls in the middle of the set when the numbers are ordered by numeric value (least to greatest). The set above should be ordered as follows: 82, 87, 87, 88, 89, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95. When there is an even number of entrants in the set, the middle two numbers should be averaged together to find the median. This sequence has 12 numbers and the middle two are 89 and 90, which equal 89.5 when averaged.
