Question

Suppose 288 electricians took a certification test that is worth 140 points. The five-number summary for the scores is shown here.
min. value = 68
Q1 = 110
median = 125
Q3 = 130
max. value = 138


About how many electricians had a score of 110 or less?

Answer 1

Quartile Q 1 = 110. We have to find how many of electricians have score 110 or less.
For Q 1 : 25 % of the scores are below this value. The area under the bell-shaped curve of the normal distribution is 0.25. And since we have 288 electricians that took a certification test:
0.25 * 288 = 72.
Answer: 72 electricians had a score of 110 and less.

Answer 2

72 would be the answer. Hope I was able to help!!!
