Hi Anni,

Five number summary.is minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum. Now, the minimum and maximum, you can get just by looking at the data. Median and quartiles are best obtained via statistical software, but it is beneficial to know what the software is doing. Median is the value directly in the middle of the dataset; in this case it would be between the twelfth and thirteenth data point in ascending order. Quartiles are similar. First quartile is the median of the values to the left of the overall median, third quartile is median of the values to the right. From the R programming language, your five-number summary

Min.=4, Q1=31.5, Mdn.= 49, Q3=74, Max.=98

I hope this helps.
