Set up a proportion. 2/5 = x/40
to solve the equation first cross multiply.
x*5=40*2
x*5=80
now divide both sides by 5, 80 divided by 5 is equal to 16.
so the number of girls in the computer lab is 16.
These 20 ages of children on a school bus are in order from least to greatest. 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10, 11, 12, 12, 12

Answer:
the interquartile range is the Q3-Q1 where Q3 is 75th percentile and Q1 is the 25th percentile.
so the total count is 20 so 25 percentile is 25% of 20 =5 and 75th percentile is 75% of 20 = 15 and since the number are already arranged in order we just pick the 15th number-5th number thus, our answer is
12-6 = 6
