Q1 of company A = 2.5
Q3 of company A = 8
Interquatile range = (Q3 - Q1)/2 = (8 - 2.5)/2 = 5.5/2 = 2.75

Q1 of company B = 2
Q3 of company B = 5.5
Interquatile range = (5.5 - 2)/2 = 3.5/2 = 1.75

Therefore, the interquartile range for Company A employees is 2 more than the interquartile range for Company B employees.
