    I don’t really understand.

    The median of the fractions listed IS 1/9.

    Why the facepalm? Does the submitter assume “the middle” refers to the mean?

    is this person retarded? im not sure if i have just read the question wrong… the answer drawn in black says it is meant to be 3/24 but if you simplify it its 1/9 therfore this isnt funny and doesnt make sense…..
