Line the numbers in the set up from highest to lowest, then

lower extreme = lowest no in the set. = ?
the upper extreme = largest no in the set
the median is the number that's in the middle
the lower quartile has 1/4 of the numbers(2 or 3) smaller and the upper quartile
has 1/4 of the numbers(2 or 3) higher
