Math Problem Statement
Order the Scores: Arrange the scores in ascending order, from lowest to highest.
Find the Median: The median is the middle score when the data is ordered. If there's an even number of scores, the median is the average of the two middle scores.Find the Quartiles:
Lower Quartile (Q1): This is the median of the lower half of the data (excluding the median if there's an odd number of scores).
Upper Quartile (Q3): This is the median of the upper half of the data (excluding the median if there's an odd number of scores).
Once you have the median and quartiles, you can use them to describe the distribution of the scores and identify any potential outliers or trends.
