25% of data has a 50% of the data has 75% of the data has
value less than or a value less than or a value less than or
equal to Q1 equal to Q2 equal to Q3
Mendenhall and
Sincich Method
A method of Finding the Quartile
Value
Formula:
Lower Quartile (L): Q1 = 1/4 (N+1)
Median: Q2 = 1/2 (N+1)
Upper Quartile (U): Q3 = 3/4 (N+1)
N = Is the number of elements in
Data
Quartiles for
ungrouped data
Example:
01
3. Find the lower quartile, median, and upper quartile of the
given data using Mendenhall and Sincich Method
4. Remember if Q1 is decimal, round of to the nearest
integer and if Q2 is decimal, round down to the nearest
integer
5. The difference between Upper Quartiler (Q3) and Lower
Quartile (Q1) is called Interquartile range.

N = Is the number of elements in Data
Quartiles for
Ungrouped Data
01
Lower Quartile (L): Q1 = 1/4 (N+1)
N=8
Q1 = 1/4 (8 + 1)
= 0.25 (9)
Q1= 2.25 round off to 3
Therefore, the Q1 is the 3rd element in the data which is 12

Ungrouped Data
01 N=8
Median or the Middle Value: Q2 = 1/2 (N+1)
Q2 = 1/2 (8 + 1)
= 0.5 (9)
Q2= 4.5
Therefore, the Q1 is the 4.5th element in the data which is 13.5
Quartiles for
Ungrouped Data
01
Upper Quartile (U): Q3 = 3/4 (N+1)
N=8
Q3 = 3/4 (8 + 1)
= 0.75 (9)
Q3 = 6.75 round down to 6
Therefore, the Q1 is the 6th element in the data which is 15

Lower Quartile (L): Q1 = 1/4 (N+1)
N = 11
Q1 = 1/4 (11 + 1)
= 0.25 (12)
Q1= 3
Therefore, the Q1 is the 3rd element in the data which is 9

Median: Q2= 1/2 (N+1)
N = 11
Q2 = 1/2 (11 + 1)
= 0.5 (12)
Q2= 6
Therefore, the Q1 is the 6th element in the data which is 10

Upper Quartile (U): Q3= 3/4 (N+1)
N = 11
Q3 = 3/4 (11 + 1)
= 0.75 (12)
Q3= 9
Therefore, the Q1 is the 9th element in the data which is 14
