The interquartile range is the difference between the Lower quartile and the upper quartile. Obviously you need to be able to find these values.

Haylock (2006) explains how to do this for difficult size groups in mathematics explained for primary teachers.

He explains the position of the lower quartile is a quarter of (n+1) and that of the upper quartile is three-quarters of (n+1).

So for a group of 7 numbers, you find a quarter of 8, which is 2. Therefore the number in second place is the lower quartile. Three quarters of 8 is 6 and so the number in 6th position is the upper quartile.

Now take the lower quartile from the upper quartile.

What is the interquartile range for 31333535 3638404142444447?

To find the interquartile range (IQR), we first need to arrange the numbers in ascending order: 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 5, 5, 6, 7, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 7. Next, we identify the first quartile (Q1) and the third quartile (Q3). Q1 is the median of the first half of the data, and Q3 is the median of the second half. The IQR is calculated as Q3 - Q1. In this case, Q1 is 4 and Q3 is 5, so the IQR is 5 - 4 = 1.
