How do you make a box and whisker plot?

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

1: Where is your data set?

OpenStudy (cherry1214):

24,18,29,21,16,23,13,11

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

2: Put it in order, least = greatest

OpenStudy (littlediva12459):

first you will need to organize your data from least to greatest so it would be 11,13,16,18,21,23,24

OpenStudy (littlediva12459):

Then find your median or your middle number

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

Now, lets break it down. 11,13,16,I18,I21,23,24

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

The median of the data set is 18, now, what is the median of the upper and lower data set?

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

11,13,16, and 21,23,24?

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

Cherry? Little Diva, don't tell her, I want her to figure it out also.

OpenStudy (cherry1214):

Im working on it

OpenStudy (littlediva12459):

you will need to add 11+13+16 And 21+23+24 Then divide each my 3 because there are 3 numbers what do you get

OpenStudy (cherry1214):

13.3 repeating and 22.6 repeating

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

We must put the numbers from least to greatest, find the median, than cut the numbers to the lower quartile, median, and the upper quartile. Actually, 11,13,16,I18,I21,23,24 18, is where our line will be located.|dw:1461957083259:dw| Now, we need Q1 and Q to complete our box.

OpenStudy (misssmartiez):

Now, how do we actually FIND the Q1 and Q3? We have Q2, our median! All we need to do is to make the cuts, so, |dw:1461957259488:dw|
