What is Quartile ?
Quartile is a statistical measure used to divide a dataset into four equal parts or quarters. The quartiles divide a dataset into three points, with each point representing a quarter or 25% of the data. The quartiles of data is represented as under :
- First Quartile(Q1)=((n+1)/4)th Term also known as the lower quartile.
- The second quartile or the 50th percentile or the Median is given as: Second Quartile(Q2)=((n+1)/2)th Term
- The third Quartile of the 75th Percentile (Q3) is given as: Third Quartile(Q3)=(3(n+1)/4)th Term also known as the upper quartile.
- The interquartile range is calculated as: Upper Quartile – Lower Quartile.
