Answer:

No, correct option is (A) 117.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Interquartile range (IQR) measures the skewness using 50% of the data. It is the difference between the third quartile and the first quartile. i.e.

    IQR = Q₃ - Q₁

For finding the Interquartile Range of the data:

100, 120, 130, 188, 196, 220, 265, 300

  1. Divide the data into two parts:

(100, 120, 130, 188) (196, 220, 265, 300)

     2. Now finding the medians of both halves of the data that will be our First and Third Quartile of data.

So, Q₁ = 125 and   Q₃ = 242.5

Now, using IQR = Q₃ - Q₁

                           = 242.5 - 125  = 117.5

Hence, Correct option is Option (A).
