To determine the median of a set of numbers, follow these steps:
1. **List All Numbers:**
- First, we need to collect all the given numbers:
- 28, 68, 17, 33, 70, 11, 9, 60, 72, 26, 42, 1, 29, 80, 62
2. **Organize in Ascending Order:**
- Arrange the numbers from the smallest to the largest:
- 1, 9, 11, 17, 26, 28, 29, 33, 42, 60, 62, 68, 70, 72, 80
3. **Find the Median:**
- As there are 15 numbers, the median is the middle number.
- Count seven numbers in from either side to find the 8th number: 33.
Therefore, the median of this list is 33.
