a set of four numbers that begins with the numbers that begin with the number 32 is arranged from smallest to the largest. if the median is 35, which of the following could possibly be the set of numbers
a. 32,32,36,38
b.32,35,38,41
c.32,34,35,36
d. 32,36,40,44

i have done everything. i have expanded all numbers, sum up the middle two divided into 2 to try to find the median 35 but to no avail
the closest i get is 34.5 and that is c.
what am i doing wrong?
Or the word possibly implies approximately and then I can take 34.5 for an answer, which I doubt.
thanks,

None of them have the median 35. But maybe the source of this problem uses a nonstandard definition.
