MEDAL FOR BEST ANSWER What is the interquartile range of the data? 100, 120, 130, 188, 196, 220, 265, 300 A. 200 B. 117.5 C. 145 D. 242.5

How to calculate the IQR: 1) Organize your data - least to greates. 2) Find the median 3) Find the lower (Q1) and upper (Q3) half of the data 4) Q3 - Q1 = IQR

OpenStudy (kewlgeek555):

I'll do the first step for you (organizing). c; Here: 100,120,130,188,196,220,265,300 Now that it is organized in ascending order, it will be easier to find the mean, then to continue on with the other steps. c:

Q2 = 192 Q1 = 120 Q3 = 265 I think it was just the median of those two data...like at first we had: 100 ,120, 130, 188, 196, 220, 265, 300 then we found the Q2 or median of the data and erased those 1 or 2 numbers and cut it in half: 100 ,120, 130 220, 265, 300 find the mean and u will find ur Q1 and Q3...is that about right mister @kewlgeek555
