Question

Identify the best statement that describes the process of finding the interquartile range for a set of data.

  1. Add the biggest and smallest numbers.
  2. Place the numbers in order from least to greatest and find the middle.
  3. Find the difference between the maximum and the minimum.
  4. Subtract Q1 from Q3.

hintHint:

The interquartile range (IQR) is the difference between the upper quartile and the lower quartile.

The correct answer is: Subtract Q1 from Q3.


    Step 1 of 1:

    In the above diagram, Q3 = the third quartile, and Q1 = the first quartile.
    Now, according to the definition stated in the hint section,  IQR = Q3 - Q1.
    i.e., IQR is subtracting Q1 from Q3.
    Final Answer:
    The right choice is-- d. Subtract Q1 from Q3.
