To find the median, we need to arrange the data in order. 22, 24, 25, 29, 30, 32, 36, 37, 40, 41. The middle value (or values if there is an even number of data points) is the median. In this case, there are 10 data points and the middle values are 30 and 32, so we take the average of those two values: (30+32)/2 = 31.
