Construct a boxplot for the following data: 8.5, 14, 71, 77, 78,
89, 100, 124, 136, 150.
What is the third quartile?
The third quartile (or upper quartile or 75th percentile) is the median of the upper half of the numbers. So, to find the third quartile, we need to place the numbers in value order and find the upper half.
8.5 14 71 77 78 89 100 124 136 150
So, the upper half is
89 100 124 136 150
The median of these numbers is 124.
Third quartile = 124
