Question

What is the interquartile for this set of data? 11,19,35,42,60,72,80,85,88

Answer 1

Answer:

55.5

Step-by-step explanation:

find the median - in this case it's 60

then group the upper and lower halves of the data:

(11, 19, 35, 42) 60 (72, 80, 85, 88)

now we find the medians of those sets:

35 + 19/2 = 54/2 =27

80 + 85/2 = 165/2 = 82.5

then subtract those two medians to find the interquartile:

82.5 - 27 = 55.5
