Calculate Five number summary from the following grouped data
XFrequency
103
1112
1218
1312
143


Solution:
Five number summary :
`x`Frequency
`f`
`cf`
1033
111215
121833
131245
14348
---------
n = 48--


Minimum value `=10`

Maximum value `=14`



First quartile `Q_1` :

Here, `n = 48`

`Q_1 = ((n+1)/4)^(th)` value of the observation

`=(49/4)^(th)` value of the observation

`=(12.25)^(th)` value of the observation

`=11`



Median `Q_2` :

`Q_2 = ((2(n+1))/4)^(th)` value of the observation

`=((2*49)/4)^(th)` value of the observation

`=(24.5)^(th)` value of the observation

`=12`



Third quartile `Q_3` :

`Q_3 = ((3(n+1))/4)^(th)` value of the observation

`=((3*49)/4)^(th)` value of the observation

`=(36.75)^(th)` value of the observation

`=13`



Thus Five number summary is
1. Minimum value `=10`

2. First quartile `Q_1=11`

3. Median `Q_2=12`

4. Third quartile `Q_3=13`

5. Maximum value `=14`
