The five-number summary for the dataset is:
Minimum: 0
Q1: 2
Median: 4
Q3: 7
Maximum: 8
The box plot shows that the distribution is slightly right-skewed, with most of the data points clustered around the lower end of the range. The majority of the eggs laid in the chicken coop each day fall between 2 and 7, with a few outliers on the higher end of the spectrum. This distribution indicates that on most days, a moderate number of eggs are laid, with some days having significantly higher or lower counts.
The following dataset represents the number of eggs laid in the chicken coop each day for the past week.
5, 8, 0, 3, 2, 7, 4
In 3–5 sentences, find the five-number summary, create a box plot, and describe the distribution of data using the box plot and explain what the distribution means.
