27
Explanation
Solution
Arrange the ages in ascending order: 22, 24, 25, 25, 26, 27, 29, 31, 32, 36, 37
Count the number of ages: There are 11 values.
Find the median position: For an odd number of values, the median is at position (𝑛+1)/2(n+1)/2. So, (11+1)/2=6(11+1)/2=6.
Identify the median: The 6th value in the ordered list is 27
