Your Input

Find the lower quartile of $$$1$$$, $$$-5$$$, $$$2$$$, $$$4$$$, $$$-3$$$, $$$6$$$, $$$7$$$, $$$0$$$, $$$2$$$, $$$5$$$, $$$-4$$$, $$$7$$$.

Solution

The lower (first) quartile $$$Q_{1}$$$ is equal to the percentile no. $$$25$$$.

The percentile no. $$$25$$$ is $$$- \frac{3}{2}$$$ (for steps, see percentile calculator).

Answer

$$$Q_{1} = - \frac{3}{2} = -1.5$$$A
