How Do You Find the Minimum, Maximum, Quartiles, and Median of a Data Set?

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

The data sample comes from the number of glasses of water consumed each day by 15 students. You are trying to find minimum, maximum, median, and quartile from this data set. Minimum is the smallest number that occurs, while maximum is the largest number that occurs. Median is the middle number. Quartiles divide the data set into four equal sized groups.
