Explanation:
6. Range = highest number - lowest number
7. Mean = total/# of values
8. Mean = 79.2, so numbers 83, 87, 82, 80, 86, 81, 82, are greater than the mean.
9. Arrange the numbers in order:
(72, 73, 74, 74, 77, 79, 79, 79, 80, 81, 82, 82, 83, 86, 87)
• 74 is the lower quartile
• 79 is the median
• 82 is the upper quartile
10. 82 is located at the 12th position.
