To find the median age, we need to first put the ages in numerical order.
The ages listed are: 28, 31, 42, 47, 49, and 54.
The median is the middle number when the numbers are in order.
Since we have 6 numbers, the median will be the average of the 3rd and 4th numbers when in numerical order.
So, the median age is (42 + 47)/2 = 44.
Therefore, the median age of the group of friends is 44 years.
