Box and Whisker, Stem and Leaf Review

Front

What is a Box and Whisker Plot?

Back

A Box and Whisker Plot is a graphical representation of a dataset that shows its minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum.

Front

What does the 'Mode' represent in a dataset?

Back

The Mode is the value that appears most frequently in a dataset.

Front

How do you find the Median of a dataset?

Back

To find the Median, arrange the data in ascending order and identify the middle value. If there is an even number of values, average the two middle values.

Front

What is the Interquartile Range (IQR)?

Back

The Interquartile Range is the difference between the first quartile (Q1) and the third quartile (Q3) in a dataset, representing the range of the middle 50% of the data.

Front

What does the maximum value in a dataset indicate?

Back

The maximum value is the largest number in a dataset.

Front

What is a Stem-and-Leaf Plot?

Back

A Stem-and-Leaf Plot is a method of displaying quantitative data in a graphical format, similar to a histogram, that retains the original data values.

Front

How do you calculate the range of a dataset?

Back

The range is calculated by subtracting the minimum value from the maximum value in the dataset.

Front

What is the purpose of a Box and Whisker Plot?

Back

The purpose of a Box and Whisker Plot is to provide a visual summary of the distribution of a dataset, highlighting its central tendency and variability.

Front

What does Q1 represent in a Box and Whisker Plot?

Back

Q1, or the first quartile, represents the median of the lower half of the dataset, indicating that 25% of the data falls below this value.

Front

What does Q3 represent in a Box and Whisker Plot?

Back

Q3, or the third quartile, represents the median of the upper half of the dataset, indicating that 75% of the data falls below this value.
