Median = it is the middle value, which split the higher half from the lower half of the data

To find it order the data:

Jack: 70, 80, 85, 90, 95 => median = 85

Jill: 70, 75, 90, 95, 100 => median = 90

Interquartile range, IQR = Percentil 75th - Percentil 25th

Jack:

Percentil 75% = Q3

5 data 75% = 3.75 => the next value (over the 3rd) is the 4th => Q3 = 90

Percentil 25% = Q1

5 data 25% = 1.25 => the next value (over the first) is the 2nd => Q1 = 80

Interquartile range = Q3 - Q1 = 90 - 80 = 10

Jill:

Q3 = fourth value = 95
Q1 = second value = 75

IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 95 - 75 = 20
