For the considered case, the weight 6 pound 1 ounce will be taken as : Option C: Lower quartile.
What are quartiles?
When we get data which can be compared relatively with each other, for finding quartiles, we arrange them in ascending or descending order.
Quartiles are then selected as 3 points such that they create four groups in the data, each groups approximately possessing 25% of the data.
Lower quartile, also called first quartile has approx 25% in its left partition, and on its right lies approx 75% of the data.
Similarly, second quartile (also called median) is approximately in mid of the data.
Third quartile (also called upper quartile) has approx 75% in its left partition, and on its right lies approx 25% of the data.
Left to right is said in assumption that data was arranged increasingly from left to right
For this case, it is said that 25% of the class weighted less than 6 pounds 1 ounce. That means it is first quartile or say lower quartile.
Thus, for the considered case, the weight 6 pound 1 ounce will be taken as : Option C: Lower quartile.
