Mai drew two box plots to show the scores for two groups of friends who went bowling. Which group shows greater variability?

• The first group shows greater variability because it has a wider range (120) and a wider IQR (50).

• The second group shows greater variability because there is a longer bottom whisker.

• The groups have about the same variability, but the first group had higher scores overall.
