The median is 1.5, hope this was helpful :)

Building time :
4c + 6a < = 120
testing time :
4c + 4a < = 100
20 child bikes and 6 adult bikes...c = 20 and a = 6
sub into both equations
4c + 6a < = 120
4(20) + 6(6) < = 120
80 + 36 < = 120
116 < = 120 (correct)
4c + 4a < = 100
4(20) + 4(6) < = 100
80 + 24 < = 100
104 < = 100 (incorrect)
ur answer : No, because the bike order does not meet the restrictions of 4c + 6a < = 120 and 4c + 4a < = 100
