Now, find the median.Recall that the median is the central value of an ordered distribution. Note that the median is also the second quartile, Q2.For an number of data values, as we have here, the median is the middle data value of the ordered data set.The median of the ordered data set 3 6 6 7 8 8 9 10 11 is .
Question
Now, find the median.Recall that the median is the central value of an ordered distribution. Note that the median is also the second quartile, Q2.For an number of data values, as we have here, the median is the middle data value of the ordered data set.The median of the ordered data set 3 6 6 7 8 8 9 10 11 is .
Solution
The median of the ordered data set 3, 6, 6, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10, 11 is found by locating the number in the middle of the set. Since there are 9 numbers in this set, the median is the 5th number when arranged in ascending order. Therefore, the median of this data set is 8.

Next, find Q1.Recall that the first quartile, Q1, is the median of the lower half of the data. That is, the median of the data located below the Q2 position.Consider the ordered list of data values. The median, Q2, which was determined in the last step, has been underlined for clarity.3, 6, 6, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10, 11There are nine values in the whole data set, but there are only values to the left of the underlined median. The first quartile, Q1, will be equal to the median of these values.Since the lower half of the data has an even number of data values, we will now use the rule to find the median of an even number of data values.median = sum of middle two values2The middle two values of the lower half of the data set are 6 and .Now, calculate the first quartile. Q1.Q1 = 6 + 2 = 2 =
