Identify the correct box-and-whisker plot of the given data. Then identify the interquartile range. {6, 8, 12, 5, 3, 11, 7, 1, 6} PLEASE HELP

Interquartile range IQR = 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Interquartile range IQR = third quartile Q3 - first quartile Q1

IQR = Q3 - Q1 1

arranging the data in ascending order;

1,3,5,6,6,7,8,11,12

The median of the data is the 5th number which is 6

Separating the data into two halves;

(1,3,5,6,),6,(7,8,11,12)

The first quartile Q1 is; (the median of the first half)

Q1 = (3+5)/2 = 4

The third quartile Q3 is; (the median of the second half)

Q3 = (8+11)/2 = 9.5

The interquartile range IQR can be derived using equation 1;

IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 9.5 - 4

IQR = 5.5

it is a. 4.2 because 7.6-3.4 gets the remaining length of 4.2. i might be wrong but i am pretty sure this is the answer.
