    Angry IC HELP Needed - statistics

    I believe question 48 of 56 is wrong on the first section of the statistics flashcards...

    Values - 42, 56, 74, 78, 79, 80, 82, 86, 88, 91, 91, 97


    There are 12 values, which means the median would be the average of the 2 middle values - 81

    The first quartile would then be the average of the 2 middle values in the first half - or 76.

    IC answer - 80 for median, and then 74 for Q1.

    if you look at the graphic, the 2 sides of the values are uneven.

    Am I right?

    Looks like your correct and the card is wrong. That is unless this is some funny type of stastics I have never studied. Math was never my best subject but this is pretty simple.
