state A:
21,22,22,23,23,23,24,24,25
minimum = 21
Q1 = 22
Q2(median) = 23
Q3 = 24
maximum = 25
IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 24 - 22 = 2
state B:
20,20,21,22,23,23,24,46,50
minimum = 20
Q1 = (20 + 21)/2 = 20.5
Q2(median) = 23
Q3 = (24 + 46)/2 = 35
maximum = 50
IQR = 35 - 20.5 = 14.5
I do not believe they are symmetrical....I think state B is skewed to the right
