(Type integers or decimals. Do not round.)
Interpret the quartiles. Choose the correct answer below.
* A. The quartiles suggest that \( 25 \% \) of the sharks bear a number of pups less than \( Q_{1}, 25 \% \) bear a number of pups between \( Q_{1} \) and \( Q_{2}, 25 \% \) bear a number of pups between \( Q_{2} \) and \( Q_{3} \), and \( 25 \% \) bear a number of pups more than \( Q_{3} \).
\( \mathbf{x}_{B} \). The quartiles suggest that \( 33 \% \) of the sharks bear a number of pups less than \( Q_{1}, 33 \% \) of the sharks bear a number of pups between \( Q_{1} \) and \( Q_{3} \), and \( 33 \% \) of the sharks bear a number of pups more than \( Q_{3} \).
C. The quartiles suggest that the average number of borne pups is \( Q_{2} \).
D. The quartiles suggest that all of the sharks bear a number of pups between \( Q_{1} \) and \( Q_{3} \).
b. Determine and interpret the interquartile range.
The interquartile range is 2
(Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.)
Interpret the interquartie range. Choose the correct answer below.
A. The data span roughly the IQR.
B. The average of the first quartile and the third quartile is the IQR.
C. The approximate difference between each quartile is the IQR.
D. The number of borne pups in the middle \( 50 \% \) of sharks spans roughly the IQR.
c. Find and interpret the five-number summary.
Determine the five-number summary.
