if the median of a list of numbers is m , the first quartile of the list is the median of the numbers in the list that are less than m . what is the first quartile of the list of numbers 42 , 24 , 30 , 22 , 26 , 27 , 33 and 35 ?
it is given that a quartile is the middle number of all numbers less than median . . so lets arrange the number in ascending order - 42 , 24 , 30 , 22 , 26 , 27 , 33 and 35 22 , 24 , 26 , 27 , 30 , 33 , 35 , 42 , . . . numbers less than median are 22 , 24 , 26 , 27 . . the median of these numbers = center of 24 and 26 = 25 e
divide(add(24, 26), const_2)
