Solution
Arithmetic Mean = sum of values / number of values = (2 + 53 + 55 + 91) / 4 = 50.3
Median = middle term of values = middle of (2, 53, 55, 91) = (53 + 55)/2 =54
Range = largest value - smallest value = 91 - 2 = 89
Lower Quartile = median of lower half of data values = middle of (2, 53) = (2 + 53) / 2 = 27.5
Upper Quartile = median of upper half of data values = middle of (55, 91) = (55 + 91) / 2 = 73

Solution
Arithmetic Mean = sum of values / number of values = (0 + 12 + 14 + 25 + 78) / 5 = 25.8
Median = middle term of values = middle of (0, 12, 14, 25, 78) = 14
Range = largest value - smallest value = 78 - 0 = 78
Lower Quartile = median of lower half of data values = middle of (0, 12) = (0 + 12) / 2 = 6
Upper Quartile = median of upper half of data values = middle of (25, 78) = (25 + 78) / 2 = 51.5

Solution
Arithmetic Mean = sum of values / number of values = (11 + 30 + 43 + 74) / 4 = 39.5
Median = middle term of values = middle of (11, 30, 43, 74) = (30 + 43)/2 =36.5
Range = largest value - smallest value = 74 - 11 = 63
Lower Quartile = median of lower half of data values = middle of (11, 30) = (11 + 30) / 2 = 20.5
Upper Quartile = median of upper half of data values = middle of (43, 74) = (43 + 74) / 2 = 58.5

Solution
Arithmetic Mean = sum of values / number of values = (6 + 20 + 21 + 34 + 46 + 58 + 63 + 87) / 8 = 41.9
Median = middle term of values = middle of (6, 20, 21, 34, 46, 58, 63, 87) = (34 + 46)/2 =40
Range = largest value - smallest value = 87 - 6 = 81
Lower Quartile = median of lower half of data values = middle of (6, 20, 21, 34) = (20 + 21) / 2 = 20.5
Upper Quartile = median of upper half of data values = middle of (46, 58, 63, 87) = (58 + 63) / 2 = 60.5
