The Five-Number Summary n n A five-number summary of a sample or population consists of five numbers that divide the sample or population into four equal parts. These numbers are called the quartiles. ¨ 0 th Quartile = minimum. ¨ 1 st Quartile = Q 1. ¨ 2 nd Quartile = median. ¨ 3 rd Quartile = Q 3. ¨ 4 th Quartile = maximum.
Example n If the distribution were uniform from 0 to 10, what would be the five-number summary? 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Example n If the distribution were uniform from 0 to 10, what would be the five-number summary? 50% 0 1 2 50% 3 4 5 Median 6 7 8 9 10
Example n If the distribution were uniform from 0 to 10, what would be the five-number summary? 0 1 2 3 Q 1 4 25% 25% 5 Median 6 7 8 Q 3 9 10

Percentiles – Textbook’s Method n The pth percentile – A value that separates the lower p% of a sample or population from the upper (100 – p)%. ¨ p% or more of the values fall at or below the pth percentile, and ¨ (100 – p)% or more of the values fall at or above the pth percentile.
Percentiles – Textbook’s Method n Find the quartiles of the following sample: 5, 8, 10, 15, 17, 19, 20, 24, 25, 30, 32.

TI-83 Quartiles To find the quartiles, first find the median (2 nd quartile). n Then the 1 st quartile is the “median” of all the numbers that are listed before the median. n The 3 rd quartile is the “median” of all the numbers that are listed after the median. n
Example n Find the quartiles of the sample 5, 8, 10, 15, 17, 19, 20, 24, 25, 30, 32

The Interquartile Range The interquartile range (IQR) is the difference between Q 3 and Q 1. n The IQR is a commonly used measure of spread, or variability. n Like the median, it is not affected by extreme outliers. n
Example The IQR of 22, 28, 31, 40, 42, 56, 78, 88, 97 is IQR = Q 3 – Q 1 = 78 – 31 = 47. n Find the IQR for the sample n ¨ 5, 20, 30, 45, 60, 80, 100, 140, 175, 200, 240.
