Solution

Given data are arranged in ascending order 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22.

Here the number of observations is n = 11

Q1 = Size of `(("N" + 1)/4)^"th"` value

= Size of `((11 + 1)/4)^"th"` value

= Size of 3rd value

Q1 = 6

Q3 = Size of `((3("N" + 1))/4)^"th"` value

= Size of `((3 xx 12)/4)^"th"` value

= Size of 9th value

Q3 = 18
