To find the median, we arrange the numbers in order: 0.3, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1.5, 1.5, 1.7, 1.8, 2.2. The median is the middle number, which is 1.5. To find the median, we first need to arrange the numbers in order from least to greatest:

0.3, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1.5, 1.5, 1.7, 1.8, 2.2

Since there are nine numbers in the list, the median will be the middle number. In this case, the middle number is 1.5. Therefore, the answer is B.
