Answers:

Q1 = 6

Q3 = 21

The data is already sorted for us. If it wasn't, then you would have to write the values from smallest to largest.

The median is the middle most value 9 (in slot 4)

The median separates the data into two halves, which I'll call the lower and upper half

lower half = {4,6,8}

upper half = {13,21,31}

The median of the lower half is 6, and this is the value of Q1.

The median of the upper half is 21. This is the value of Q3
