Question

What is the Interquartile range of 41, 41, 43, 43, 45, 50, 52, 53, 54, 62, 63, 63, 67, 75,97

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation

Sort the data: 41, 41, 43, 43, 45, 50, 52, 53, 54, 62, 63, 63, 67, 75, 97

Find the median (Q2): 53

Split the data set into two parts: Q1 (25th percentile) and Q3 (75th percentile)

Q1: 41, 41, 43, 43, 45, 50, 52, 53

Q3: 54, 62, 63, 63, 67, 75, 97

Find the median (Q1) of Q1 and the median (Q3) of Q3:

Q1 = 45

Q3 = 63

Finally, calculate the IQR by subtracting Q1 from Q3:

IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 63 - 45 = 18

So, the interquartile range of the given data set is 18. This means that 50% of the data falls within a range of 45 + 18 = 63 and 45 - 18 = 27.
