Answer:

Interquartile Range = 90.5

Explanation:

We are given the following data set for which we have to find its interquartile range:


120,140,150,195,203,226,245,280

Since we have an even number data set here so dividing the data set into two halves and taking the average of two middle values for each date set to find
Q_1 and
Q_3.


Q_1=(140+150)/(2) =145


Q_3= (226+245)/(2)=235.5

Interquartile Range
(Q_3-Q_1) = 235.5-145 = 90.5
