What percentage does the third quartile represent?

The third quartile (also called the upper quartile) has 75 percent of the data below it and the top 25 percent of the data above it on a box and whisker plot! Hope this helps!

Since the data is split, the third quartile would represent 25% of the total data, but the top 75%. It depends what the problem is asking.
