1) Put the numbers in order: 40, 45, 50, 60, 60, 75, 90, 90, 120 2) Find the median: Median is 60 (the 2nd one) 3) Place parentheses around the numbers above and below the median. For easy identification of Q1 and Q3. (40, 45, 50, 60,) 60, (75, 90, 90, 120) 4) Find the Q1 and Q3. Q1 = median of the lower half of the data; Q3 = median of the higher half of the data. Q1 and Q3 have even sets so its median cannot be defined. 5) Had both sets contain odd sets, the median of Q1 is subtracted from the median of Q3 to get the IQR.
We can then use the Alternative definition of IQR. IQR is the difference between the largest and smallest values in the middle 50% of a set data.
40, 45, 50, 60, 60, 75, 90, 90, 120
Middle 50% is 50, 60, 60, 75, 90; IQR = Largest value - smallest value;
The diameter of a tire is the distance across the tire through the center. Since tires are circular, you can find the circumference of the tire from the diameter. The circumference represents the distance the tire travels when it makes one revolution. If you know the number of inches in a mile and the circumference, you can find the number of times the wheel turns per mile.
First, measure the diameter of the tire in inches.
Secondly, multiply the diameter by pi, which is approximately 3.1416, to find the tire circumference. For example, if the tire has a 20 inch diameter, multiply 20 by 3.1416 to get 62.83 inches.
