HELP

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well you have to find the middle number first, so put it in order from least to greatest

OpenStudy (anonymous):

11 13 16 18 21 24 29

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, so what is the middle number?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

18?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, now you break the data down in to the first three and last three and find the middle numbers of those so like middle number of 11 13 16 and 21 24 29

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 13 and 24?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep, so now you have your number needed. you will draw a box above a number line. the box will go from 13 to 24 and will have a middle line at 18

that is the box part the wiskers are just lines from the box to the highest term and then to the lowest term
