The median of a dataset is the middle value when the data points are arranged in ascending order. Since N = 28, the median will be the average of the 14th and 15th values because there are an even number of data points. Given that the 14th and 15th values are 17 and 19 respectively, the median is (17 + 19) / 2 = 18.0.
