Q. 3.

Sort Data Set: Step 1: Sort the data set in ascending order for easier calculations.Data: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
Find Mode: Step 2: Find the mode.Mode: No number repeats, so no mode.
Calculate Mean: Step 3: Calculate the mean (average).Mean = (1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10)/10=55/10=5.5
Determine Median: Step 4: Determine the median (middle value).Median: Since there are 10 numbers, median = average of 5th and 6th numbers = (5+6)/2=5.5
Calculate Range: Step 5: Calculate the range (difference between highest and lowest).Range = 10−1=9
Mean Absolute Deviation: Step 6: Calculate the mean absolute deviation.Mean absolute deviation = (∣1−5.5∣+∣2−5.5∣+∣3−5.5∣+∣4−5.5∣+∣5−5.5∣+∣6−5.5∣+∣7−5.5∣+∣8−5.5∣+∣9−5.5∣+∣10−5.5∣)/10= (4.5+3.5+2.5+1.5+0.5+0.5+1.5+2.5+3.5+4.5)/10=25/10=2.5
Calculate Variance: Step 7: Calculate the variance.Variance = [(1−5.5)2+(2−5.5)2+(3−5.5)2+(4−5.5)2+(5−5.5)2+(6−5.5)2+(7−5.5)2+(8−5.5)2+(9−5.5)2+(10−5.5)2]/10= [20.25+12.25+6.25+2.25+0.25+0.25+2.25+6.25+12.25+20.25]/10=82.5/10=8.25
Calculate IQR: Step 8: Calculate the interquartile range (IQR).IQR=Q3−Q1Q1= median of first 5 numbers =3Q3= median of last 5 numbers =8IQR=8−3=5
