Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Quartile is a statistical term that refers to a division of a data set into four equal parts, with each quartile representing 25% of the dataset. The first quartile represents the 25th percentile, the second quartile represents the 50th percentile (also known as the median), and the third quartile represents the 75th percentile. Therefore, 25 percentile points refer to the first quartile. Choice B) Interquartile range refers to the difference between the third and first quartiles, while choice C) Quarter and D) Range are not directly related to the concept of quartiles.
