The measures of variability have been found for the scores Mr. Han's students earned on their last test. R: 41; M: 82; Q1: 76; Q3: 87.5; IR: 11.5.

Use the measures of variability to describe the data.

The range of the data is 41 points. The median is 82 points. One-fourth of the students earned 76 points or less. One-fourth of the students earned 87.5 points or more. Half of the students earned between 76 and 87.5 points.
