quartile 3: 82

maximum: 82.7

25% of data is below quartile 1

Answer 2

The mean or average for these animals is 25.733. The median or middle lifespan is 18 from the hog. The mode or most repeated number is 40 for the Asian elephant and cockatoo.

The teal is the closest animal to the mean life span at 20 years.

The hog is the closest to the median life span because it is the median at 18 years.
