Solution

To find the interquartile range (IQR), we first need to find the lower quartile (Q1) and the upper quartile (Q3).

Step 1: Arrange the data in ascending order, which is already done.

Step 2: Find the median. The median is the middle number of a sorted list. In this case, we have 11 numbers, so the median is the 6th number, which is 46.

Step 3: Find Q1. Q1 is the median of the first half of the data. Since we have 11 numbers, the first half is the first 5 numbers: 1, 5, 27, 29, 34. The median of this set is 27.

Step 4: Find Q3. Q3 is the median of the second half of the data. The second half is the last 5 numbers: 48, 61, 64, 84, 96. The median of this set is 64.

Step 5: Subtract Q1 from Q3 to find the IQR. IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 64 - 27 = 37.

So, the interquartile range of this data set is 37 (Option C).
