Answer 1

To find the statistical measures for the given data set, let's first sort the data and then calculate the required values:

The sorted data is:
6, 6, 6, 10, 11, 11, 12, 12, 14, 15, 15, 16, 16

### Statistical Measures

1. **Minimum (Min)**: The smallest value in the data set.
- Min = 6

2. **First Quartile (Q1)**: The median of the first half of the data (the lower 50%).
- First half: 6, 6, 6, 10, 11, 11
- Q1 = (6 + 10) / 2 = 8

3. **Median (Med)**: The middle value when the data is ordered.
- Total number of values: 13
- Median = 12 (the 7th value in the ordered set)

4. **Third Quartile (Q3)**: The median of the second half of the data (the upper 50%).
- Second half: 12, 14, 15, 15, 16, 16
- Q3 = (15 + 15) / 2 = 15

5. **Maximum (Max)**: The largest value in the data set.
- Max = 16

### Summary of Statistical Measures

- **Min**: 6
- **Q1**: 8
- **Med**: 12
- **Q3**: 15
- **Max**: 16

### Box and Whisker Plot

To create the box and whisker plot, you can represent these values:

1. Draw a rectangular box from Q1 to Q3 (from 8 to 15).
2. Draw a line at the median (12) inside the box.
3. Extend "whiskers" from the box to the Min (6) and Max (16) values.

This creates a visual representation of the data's spread and central tendency. If you have a graphical tool, you would drag the lines accordingly to reflect these calculations.
