Explanation:

Step1: Order the data

First, we need to arrange the data set in ascending order. The given data is 35, 37, 61, 32, 95, 93, 43. Let's sort them: 32, 35, 37, 43, 61, 93, 95.

Step2: Find the median position

For a data set with \( n \) values, the median position is \( \frac{n + 1}{2} \) when \( n \) is odd. Here, \( n = 7 \) (since there are 7 data points), so the median position is \( \frac{7+ 1}{2}=4 \).

Step3: Identify the median

The 4th value in the sorted data set (32, 35, 37, 43, 61, 93, 95) is 43.

Answer:

43
