look up what lower quartile and upper quartile mean, do you know?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The upper 25% (or 1/4) and the lower 25% Can you please tell me if it's right or not? :(
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its actually the mean of the bottom 50 % and the mean of the top 50 %
To find the breaking point for the top and bottom, you start by finding the mean of the entire set.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ah, so... 2,56?

sorry sorry whenever i said mean i should have said median
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So... are both of my answers wrong?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
First let's find the median (which means number that is listed and is in the middle) of the entire set. yes the answers are wrong so far.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
31, 46,
Median is between that
OpenStudy (anonymous):
since we have an odd number of data numbers we will end up with an exact answer for the median

how many numbers do we have?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
13
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so what number is exactly in the middle, you were close with your previous answer, but we only want one median
OpenStudy (anonymous):
46
OpenStudy (anonymous):
great!
now we have the upper range (which is 46 thru 56)
and the lower range ( which is 2-46)
You must find the median of the upper and lower range.

Side question: Find the interquartile range.
8, 8, 16, 20, 36, 37, 37, 51, 51, 54, 64, 70, 70
is it 41?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
upper: 53 lower: 21
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The interquartile range is = upper quartile - lower quartile
OpenStudy (anonymous):
your upper and lower are correct!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Median is 37 for the bq~!
