Number of steps (in thousands) taken by 1 persons in a day are:
12, 7 , 15, 10, 17, 19, 25
The Quartile deviation is
14.5
5
9
4.5
Arrangement of the given data in ascending order of magnitude is:
7, I0, 12, 15, 17, 19,25
Here, Q1= size of n+14th item = size of 2 nd item =10
Q3= size of 3(n+1)4th item = size of 6 th item =19
Then Q.D. =Q3−Q12=19−102=4.5
