Answer: Option C

A data set with less variation will have a smaller __ interquartile range__.

Explanation:

The datasets that have less variation are those that have smaller dispersion or variation measures.

Some of these measures of variance are variance, standard deviation, mean absolute deviation, range and interquartile range. Among the options shown, the only one that is used as a measure of variation is the interquartile range. The interquartile range is the difference between the third quartile and the first quartile of a data distribution. In other words, the interquartile range measures the range between the central 50% of the data.

Then the answer is the option C
