Respuesta :

bcalle
Quartile 3 is 130. Seventy-five percent of the data lies below Q3.
.75* 360= 270
270 is the answer

The number of students who had a score of 130 or less will be 270.

It is given that

Total students = 360

Q1 = 110

Q2 = 125

Q3 = 130

Min value =68

Max value = 138

What are Q1 and Q2 in this problem?

25% of data falls to the left of Q1 while 75% of data lies to the right of Q1

75% of data falls to the left of Q3 while 25% of data lies to the right of Q1

Since, Q3 = 130, so the number of students who had a score of 130 or less will be 75 % of the total number of students i.e. 75% of 360 = 270

Therefore, the number of students who had a score of 130 or less will be 270.
