Measures of Variation

By Grace Fanshaw

The DIFFERENCE (subtraction) between the highest and lowest data point.

​La DIFERENCIA (resta) entre el punto de datos más alto y el más bajo.

Range

Key Vocab

1st & 3rd Quartiles

The distance (difference) between the 1st and 3rd quartile.

La distancia (diferencia) entre el primer y tercer cuartil.

Quartiles

The medians of the data less than (1st Q) and greater than (3rd Q) the dataset's median.


Las medianas de los datos menores que (1st Q) y mayores que (3.er Q) la mediana del conjunto de datos.

Interquartile Range

The data that splits the data SET into 4 equal parts

Los datos que dividen el CONJUNTO de datos en 4 partes iguales

1. -Put your data in numerical order

2. Find your ​highest and lowest number

3. SUBTRACT your lowest from your highest

4. The answer is your range
   

Range-
the difference between highest and lowest data point

1. ​Ordena tus datos numéricamente

2. Encuentra tu número más alto y más bajo

3. Resta el más bajo del más alto

4. La respuesta es tu rango

What are the steps to find the RANGE?

• Put your data in numerical order

• Find your highest and lowest data points

• Subtract the lowest from the highest

• The answer is your range

Which of these numbers is the 3RD QUARTILE?

1. Find your quartiles

2. Take your 3rd Quartile and subtract your 1st from it​

Interquartile Range- The difference between the 1st Quartile and the 3rd
