By Hand
Step 1:
Put the numbers in order.
1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 9, 12, 15, 18, 19, 27.
Step 2:
Find the median.
1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 9, 12, 15, 18, 19, 27.
Step 3:
Place parentheses around the numbers above and below the median.
Not necessary statistically, but it makes Q1 and Q3 easier to spot.
(1, 2, 5, 6, 7), 9, (12, 15, 18, 19, 27).
Step 4:
Find Q1 and Q3
Think of Q1 as a median in the lower half of the data and think of Q3 as a median for the upper half of data.
(1, 2, 5, 6, 7), 9, ( 12, 15, 18, 19, 27). Q1 = 5 and Q3 = 18.
Step 5:
Subtract Q1 from Q3 to find the interquartile range.
18 – 5 = 13.
A fraction with a numerator that is greater than or equal to the denominator is known as an improper fraction.
Answer:
270
Step-by-step explanation:
Jones turns out 200 relays to Smith's 180. You set up that basic ratio and make a proportion out of it.
S/J = 180/200
Now you make your proportion
S/J = x/300
But the 2 ratios much remain the same.
180/200 = x / 300 Multiply both sides by 300
180*300/200 = x Multiply the numerator together.
54000/200 = x Do the division
270 = x
Smith will have turned out 270 relays.
