Explanation:

Minimum:

Minimum of the data set is the smallest value in the data set.

Median:

Median is the value in data set that divides the data arranged in ascending order in two equal parts.

First Quartile:

A median divides the data arranged in ascending order in two equal parts. The lower half and the upper half. The lower half consists of values less than median and the upper half consists of values greater than the median. First quartile is the value in data that divides the lower half into two equal parts. It can also be called the median of lower half. It is denoted by Q_1 . About 25% of the numbers in the data set lie below Q_1 and 75% values lie above the first quartile.

Third Quartile:

The third quartile is the value in data set that divides the upper half of the data into two equal parts. It can also be called the median of the upper half.

It is denoted by Q_3. 75% values of the data set lie below third quartile and 25% value lie above it.

Maximum:

The maximum of a data is the largest value in the data set..
