Question

The following stem and leaf plot represents the times and minutes required for 26 coworkers to communicate to work. Use the data provided to find The second quartile

Answer 1

The second quartile is the median of the data.

There are a total of 26 data values.

Therefore, the median is given by the average of the 13 th and the 14 th data points.

The 13 th data is 27

The 14 th data is 31

The average of the 13 th and the 14 th is given by:

`(27+31)/(2)=(58)/(2)=29`

Hence, the second quartile is 29
