The five number summary and interquartile range for the data-set is given by:

  • Minimum: 48
  • Lower quartile: 54.
  • Median: 63.5.
  • Upper quartile: 74
  • Maximum: 80.
  • Interquartile range: 20

What are the median and the quartiles of a data-set?

  • The median of the data-set separates the bottom half from the upper half, that is, it is the 50th percentile.
  • The first quartile is the median of the first half of the data-set.
  • The third quartile is the median of the second half of the data-set.

In this problem, we have that:

  • The minimum value is the smallest value, of 48.
  • The maximum value is the smallest value, of 80.
  • The data-set has even cardinality, hence the median is the mean of the middle elements, which are 63 and 64, hence the median is of 63.5.
  • The first quartile is the median of the five elements of the first half, hence it is of 54.
  • The third quartile is the median of the five elements of the second half, hence it is of 74.
  • The IQR is the difference between the quartiles, hence 74 - 54 = 20.
