==== Method 3 ==== # Use the median to divide the ordered data set into two halves. The median becomes the second quartile. #* If there are odd numbers of data points, then go to the next step. #* If there are even numbers of data points, then the Method 3 starts off the same as the Method 1 or the Method 2 above and you can choose to include or not include the median as a new datapoint. If you choose to include the median as the new datapoint, then proceed to the step 2 or 3 below because you now have an odd number of datapoints. If you do not choose the median as the new data point, then continue the Method 1 or 2 where you have started. # If there are (4''n''+1) data points, then the lower quartile is 25% of the ''n''th data value plus 75% of the (''n''+1)th data value; the upper quartile is 75% of the (3''n''+1)th data point plus 25% of the (3''n''+2)th data point. # If there are (4''n''+3) data points, then the lower quartile is 75% of the (''n''+1)th data value plus 25% of the (''n''+2)th data value; the upper quartile is 25% of the (3''n''+2)th data point plus 75% of the (3''n''+3)th data point.
