Its median is greater than its mode.

median is 12th data point = 24 mode = 27 false

It has a range of 52 pages.

range is largest minus smallest = 57-0 = 57 false

The value of the first quartile is 13.

There are 11 data points 11/2 = 5.5 = 1st quartile is 6th data point = 13

The data is symmetric.
