you do work out the upper and lower quartile
Roughly speaking, finding the third quartile is similar to finding the median. First, use the median to split the data set into two equal halves. Then the third quartile is the median of the upper half. Similarly, the first quartile is the median of the lower half.
Subtract the lower quartile from the upper quartile.
in a set as such {2,3,4,5,6,7,8,}, 5 would be the median, 7 would be the upper quartile, and 3 would be the lower quartile. The lower quartile divides the lower half of a set of data into two equal parts
the interquartile is just subtracting the high quartile from the low quartile. * * * * * No, it is subtracting the lower quartile from the higher quartile.
25% of the observed values are smaller than the lower quartile.
IQR = Inter-Quartile Range = Upper Quartile - Lower Quartile.
No, interquartile range cannot be for any data. The lower quartile for data must be used below the lower quartile.
lower quartile = 1/4(n+1) upper quartile = 3/4(n+1) where n is the number of the values. Obviously the values have to be ordered from the lower to the higher: the number you'll get is the position in this order. Let's say you get 4 for your lower quartile, it means that the 4th value is your lower quartile.
It is the upper quartile minus the lower quartile.
A lower quartile for a set of four observations is not a meaningful concept.
A lower quartile i s the mediaon of the lower half of a data set. A data set is divided up into different quartiles.
