Answer is 0.7

Given numbers 4/5,2/7,9/13,6/11,5,9
4/5=0.8
2/7=0.28
9/13=0.6
6/11=0.5
Arranging them in a sequence we get as

=>0.28, 0.5, 0.6, 0.8, 5, 9
=> 2/7, 6/11, 9/13, 4/5, 5, 9

there are 6 numbers so the median would be the middle pair

=> ((9/13)+(4/5))/2
=> (0.6+0.8)/2
=> 1.4/2
=> 0.7

so the median of the above sequence is 0.7 or 7/10
