Question

cara is putting apples from her orchard into 5 - pound bags to sell. the median number of apples in the bags is 15 apples, and the interquartile range is 2 apples. cara hopes all the bags will sell in the next 4 to 7 days. which is a measure of how much the number of apples in a bag varies? 2 apples 4 apples 7 apples 15 apples

Explanation:

The inter - quartile range (IQR) is a measure of variability that shows how spread out the middle 50% of the data is. Here, the IQR is 2 apples, and it represents how much the number of apples in a bag varies. The median (15 apples) is a measure of central tendency, and the time range (4 - 7 days) for selling is not related to the variability of the number of apples in the bags.

Answer:

2 apples
