To find the interquartile range, we first need to find the median (Q2) of the dataset.
Arranging the data in ascending order: 11, 13, 14, 15, 17, 21, 22, 27
Q2 is the median, which is the middle value of the dataset, so Q2 = 17.
Next, we need to find the median of the lower half (Q1) and the median of the upper half (Q3).
Q1 = median of the lower half = (13 + 14) / 2 = 13.5
Q3 = median of the upper half = (21 + 22) / 2 = 21.5
Finally, we can calculate the interquartile range:
Interquartile Range = Q3 - Q1 = 21.5 - 13.5 = 8
Therefore, the interquartile range of the given dataset is 8.
Find the interquartile range of the given dataset.
