Answer:

3.5

Explanation:

The interquartile range is the difference between the third and first quartile

IQR = Q3 - Q1

From the dot plot given :

The data, X could be culled :

X = 43, 44, 44, 44, 45, 45, 47, 48, 48

n = 9

Q3 = 3/4(n + 1)th term

Q3 = 3/4(10) = 7.5th term = (47 + 48) / 2 = 47.5

Q1 = 1/4(n + 1)th term

Q1 = 1/4(10) = 2.5th term = (44 + 44) / 2 = 44

Q3 - Q1 = 47.5 - 44 = 3.5
