Explanation:
To find the range, simply arranged the numbers from least to greatest and subtract the smallest number from the largest number.
3,4,5,6,7
7-3=4
Therefore, the range is 4.
To find the IQR, the numbers must be organized into quartiles, and the first quartile must be subtracted from the third.
In this case:
3 is the minimum (0%)
3.5 is the first quartile (25%)
5 is the second quartile (50%)
6.5 is the third quartile (75%)
and 7 is the maximum (100%)
Now, since 6.5 is the third quartile and 6.5 is the first quartile, our expression to find the IQR is 6.5-3.5, which equals 3.
