Median = Mid-termMaths doubt of stem and leaf diagram, please help
Answer is also given in the picture in the smaller font
Thanks a tonne!
we find the nth term where median lies using total number of terms
we have 71 insects for X (odd number)
so Median = {(71+1)/2}th term
= 36th term
start adding up the numbers on the left given in bracket
that's your frquency for the certain range
you"ll have 28th-44th term on the left side of 82 on the stem
5||82 is your median i.e. 0.835
Interquartile range = lower quartie - upper quartile
lower quartile = 25th percentile = {(25/100)x(71+2)}th term
= 18th term
= 0.814
upper quartile = 75th percentile = {(75/100)x(71+2)}th term
= 54th term
= 0.833
thus, IQ = 0.833-0.814 = 0.019
