Step-by-step explanation:
The 5-number summary of a data set includes ...
- minimum
- 1st quartile
- median (2nd quartile)

Summary values
When the data are written in increasing order, they are ...
23 23 24 27 27 28 30 30 30 33 34 35
The minimum is the first value on the list, 23.
The first quartile is the average of the two middle values in the lower half of the data set: (24+27)/2 = 25.5.
The median is the average of the two middle values: (28+30)/2 = 29.
The third quartile is the average of the two middle values in the upper half of the data set: (30+33)/2 = 31.5.
The maximum is the last value on the list: 35.
