Let's put each list of the yearly rainfall totals in order from least to greatest.

 

The yearly rainfall totals in inches for Seattle are:

23.78 ,  32.46 ,  40.30 ,  45.79 ,  49.42 ,  55.14

 

The median is the average of the two middle numbers in this list.

 

The median yearly rainfall for Seattle  =  (40.30 + 45.79)/2  in

The median yearly rainfall for Seattle  =  43.045  in

 

The yearly rainfall totals in inches for Las Vegas are:

2.33 ,  3.72 ,  3.84 ,  4.11 ,  5.62 ,  8.79

 

The median yearly rainfall for Las Vegas  =  (3.84 + 4.11)/2  in

The median yearly rainfall for Las Vegas  =  3.975  in

 

The difference between the median yearly rainfall for Seattle and Las Vegas   =   43.045 in  -  3.975 in

The difference between the median yearly rainfall for Seattle and Las Vegas   =   39.07 in
