What does the lower quartile (Q1) represent in a box and whisker plot?

Back

Q1 is the median of the lower half of the data set, representing the 25th percentile.

Front

How do you calculate the range of a data set?

Back

A box plot shows the median, quartiles, and potential outliers of a data set.
