Given:

1, 5, 12, 14, 29, 45, 48, 61, 72, 84, 96

To find:

Interquartile range ( IQR )

Solution:

First, find the median of 2 halves.

1, 5, 12, 14, 29, 45, 48, 61, 72, 84, 96


q_(3) = 72


q_(1) = 12

Then, find the difference


= q_(3) - q_(1)


= 72 - 12


\large\boxed{\sf{IQR=60}}

There for the interquartile range of the given data set is 60
