A commuter has a choice of two routes for his morning drive to work. in an effort to determine the best​ route, he collects data on his drive time for each route. if he is interested in a route with a predictable drive​ time, which route should he choose and​ why?

Having carefully considered the preference of the commuter which is “a route with a predictable drive time”, he should pick Rural Roads route. And this is because this route has a lesser IQR (interquartile range), which shows a smaller spread and more consistent times.
