How to change a median?

I don't have an example problem but I am a bit confused as to how to know what number to add to a data set to create a desired median.

For example, if I am running a race and my scores were ___ ____ and ____, what must my next score be to get a median of __?

Can I have an example problem and the steps to solve it? Thank you!

    Question is ambiguous. If you want an exact median, you may need to add not just one score, but several scores.
