Question 60 • Concepts in Probability and Statistics A
First, sort the sales figures: 72, 80, 81, 84, 92, 92, 94, 95. The lower half is 72, 80, 81, 84, so its median is (80 + 81) ÷ 2 = 80.5. The upper half is 92, 92, 94, 95, so its median is (92 + 94) ÷ 2 = 93. Therefore, choice A gives the lower quartile of 80.5 and upper quartile of 93.
