Creating a box-and-whisker plot:17,18,9,10,6,5,6,10,14,12,11,8 A box-and-whisker plot is a diagram that summarizes the data by dividing it into four parts. 1) Order the data from least to greatest. 5,6,6,8,9,10,10,11,12,14,17,18
5,6,6,8,9,10,10,11,12,14,17,18 (10+10) ÷ 2 = 10 3) Find the upper quartile, the median of the top half. 2) Find the median. (12+14) ÷ 2 = 13 4) Find the lower quartile, the median of the lower half. (6+8) ÷ 2 = 7

7) Draw your box & whiskers.Boxes connect the median and quartiles and whiskers connect the extreme to the quartiles. |5 | | | | |10 | | | | |15 | | | | |20
