Part a:


Q_(1) = 56


Q_(2) = 60


Q_(3) = 63

The quartiles are found by finding the medium of the data, and then the mediums of the two different data sets on either side of the medium. The
Q_(2) is the overall medium,
Q_(1) is the medium of the first half, and
Q_(3) is the medium of the second half.

-> How is the medium found? When finding the medium we put the values in order least to greatest and pick the middle value.

Part b:

The range is 7.

The interquartile range is the range of numbers between
Q_(1) and
Q_(3). In other words, it is 50% of the data, directly in the middle.

This becomes 63 - 56 = 7

Part c:

79 is an outlier.

It is an outlier because it is 1.5 above or below (in this case, above) the interquartile range.

-> 63 + (7 +
(7)/(2)) ≤ 79

-> 63 + 10.5 ≤ 79

-> 73.5 ≤ 79

Have a nice day!

I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly.
