What is the median of the lower half of a set of data. this is one of the 5 pieces plotted in a box-and-whisker plot.?
It is the lower quartile.
What divides a set of data in half?
Median
What is the example of the lower quartile?
Lower Quartile (Q1): the number that divides the lower half of the data into two equal halves. For example, given this data: 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 40, 41, 42 The Median is 29. Now, you need to find the lower quartile. You want to look at all the data that is below the median, so: 25, 26, 27, 28, The median splits the data into two groups. Find the median of the lower group, which is 26.5 ((26+27)/2). The lower quartile is 26.5
How do you solve a third 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.
What is meant by the median of a set of data?
In probability theory and statistics, a median is described as the number separating the higher half of a sample from the lower half.So if you have 19 measurements and order them from least to greatest, the tenth value is the median.
