Range subtracts the lowest value from the value in your data set. If you have an outlier, meaning a number either obviously outside the data, your range will be incorrect because one of the values will not represent the average pattern of the data. For example: if your data values include 1,2,3,4,and 17, 17 would be the outlier. The range would be 16 which is not truly representative of the rest of the data.
The interquartile range of a set of data is the difference between the upper quartile and lower quartile.
it messes up the mean and sometimes the median. * * * * * An outlier cannot mess up the median.
there is no outlier because there isn't a data set to go along with it. so theres no outlier
Outliers are basically numbers, in a set of numbers, that don't belong in that set and/or that stand out. For example, in the data set {3, 5, 4, 4, 6, 2, 25, 5, 6, 2} the value of 25 is an outlier. For a set of numerical data (a set of numbers), any value (number) that is markedly smaller or larger than other values is an outlier. This is the qualitative definition. Mathematically, a quantitative definition often given is that an outliers is any number that is more than 1.5 times the interquartile range away from the median. However, this is not definitive and in some cases other definitions will be used.
Providing that the number of outliers is small compared to sample size, their effect on the interquartile range should be limited since their effects are realised mainly in the extremes of the sample.

how do you find the interquartile range of this data
The interquartile range of a set of data is the difference between the upper quartile and lower quartile.
Outlier: an observation that is very different from the rest of the data.How does this affect the data: outliers affect data because it means that your calculations might be off which makes it a possibility that more than the outlier is off.
An outlier does affect the mean of the data. How it's affected depends on how many data points there are, how far from the data the outlier is, whether it is greater than the mean (increases mean) or less than the mean (decreases the mean).
Range is the largest minus the smallest value in the data set. An outlier is a value that is far away from the majority of the data.
An outlier can make the range go up.Example:say you have the numbers. 2,5,4,1,7,and 18.in order from least to greatest: 1,2,4,5,7,18range is the greatest number - the littlest number.so in this case it is 18-1 which equals 17say if there was no outlier and the highest number was 7it would be 7-1 which is 6 and it makes the outlier smaller....
The interquartile range is the upper quartile (75th percentile) minus (-) the lower percentile (75th percentile). The interquartile range uses 50% of the data. It is a measure of the "central tendency" just like the standard deviation. A small interquartile range means that most of the values lie close to each other.
It gives a better picture of data collected because the data is not so spread out.
the number in your piece of data = n lower quartile, n+1 divided by 4 upper quartile, n+1 divded by 4 and times by three interquartile range(IQR) = upper quartile - lower quartile outliers(O) = interquartile range x 1.5 lower than IQR-O is an outlier (h) above IQR+O is an outlier (h) the outliers on your box plot are any numbers that are the value i have named (h) ^
