A coefficient is an integer that is written along with a variable or it is multiplied by the variable. For example, in the term 2x, 2 is the co-efficient.
Those variables which do not carry any number along with them, have a coefficient 1. For example, the term y has coefficient 1.
Because the numbers are lined up from least to greatest all you have to do is find the middle of all the numbers which is 10. So everything below ten is lower quartile. Everything above is upper quartile
