Yes; you should read Statistic foundation first.

Any odd set of numbers, the median is always the middle one.
Any even set of  numbers, the median is always the sum of the

middle two divided by 2.

so, 3, 9, 9 的median is 9?

Sum=7*3=21
the median is 9 meaning A 9 B
A+B=21-9=12

You want to minimize B to maxmize A; in other words, B is at least 9. If B is at least 9, A has to be 12-9=3.

the answer is 3. I'm confused too. so what is the median if we have a series of 1, 2, 2 for example?

TOP

is 2
