ounces

List Weights Ascending Order: Step $1$ : List the weights in ascending order. $\newline$ Weights given: $2$ ounces, $4$ ounces, $7$ ounces, $1$ ounce, $7$ ounces, $4$ ounces, $2$ ounces, $1$ ounce $\newline$ Arrange in ascending order: $1$ ounce, $1$ ounce, $2$ ounces, $2$ ounces, $4$ ounces, $4$ ounces, $7$ ounces, $7$ ounces
Find Median of Ordered List: Step $2$ : Find the median of the ordered list. $\newline$ Since there are $8$ data points, the median will be the average of the $4$ th and $5$ th values in this ordered list. $\newline$ $4$ th value = $2$ ounces, $5$ th value = $4$ ounces $\newline$ Median = $(2 + 4) / 2 = 3$ ounces
