To find the lower quartile (Q1) and upper quartile (Q3) of the data, we first need to arrange the data in ascending order:
5, 8, 9, 9, 10, 10, 11, 12, 14, 14, 17
To find Q1 and Q3, we will use the formula:
Q1 = (n + 1) / 4
Q3 = 3 * (n + 1) / 4
where n is the number of data points, which in this case is 11.
Q1 = (11 + 1) / 4 = 3rd data point
Q1 = 3rd data point = 9
Q3 = 3 * (11 + 1) / 4 = 9th data point
Q3 = 9th data point = 14
Therefore, the lower quartile (Q1) is 9 and the upper quartile (Q3) is 14.

Therefore, the lower quartile (Q1) is 9 and the upper quartile (Q3) is 14.
