Q. In the data set below, what are the lower quartile, the median, and the upper quartile?23,30,34,53,61,67,68,74,87,89,93lower quartile = _____median = _____upper quartile = _____
Question Prompt: Question prompt: Determine the lower quartile, median, and upper quartile of the given data set.
Arrange Data Set: Arrange the data set in ascending order, if it is not already.The data set is already in ascending order: 23,30,34,53,61,67,68,74,87,89,93.
Find Median: Find the median of the data set.Since there are 11 numbers, the median is the middle number, which is the 6th number in the ordered list.Median: 67
Identify Lower Quartile: Identify the data set for the lower quartile.For the lower quartile, consider the first half of the data set, excluding the median.First half is 23, 30, 34, 53, 61.
Find Lower Quartile: Find the value of the lower quartile.Since there are 5 numbers in the first half, the lower quartile is the median of these 5 numbers, which is the 3rd number.Lower quartile: 34
Identify Upper Quartile: Identify the data set for the upper quartile.For the upper quartile, consider the second half of the data set, excluding the median.Second half is 68, 74, 87, 89, 93.
Find Upper Quartile: Find the value of the upper quartile.Since there are 5 numbers in the second half, the upper quartile is the median of these 5 numbers, which is the 3rd number.Upper quartile: 87
