Answer 2

c. the value of the first quantile is 13

Explanation:

The median of this data is 24. The mode is 27; the median is not larger than the mode.

The range is the difference between the lowest and highest values; this is 57-0 = 57, not 52.

The data is not symmetric; we can see from the diagram that it is skewed.

The first quartile is the median of the lower half of data (the half created by finding the median). The median is 24; the lower quartile then is 13.
