If a data set 53 points, describe in detail which data point will be the median. Then, explain which data points would be the first quartile and the third quartile.
There will be one median since there is an odd number of data points. This will be the 27th point (26 on each side). Since there is an even number of data points on each half, the first and third quartile will be in between two data values. The first quartile will be between the 13th and 14th data points. The third quartile will be between 40th and 41st points.
