Question

What is the formula for finding an outlier?

Answer 1

Look below :)

Explanation:

You first determine the value of `Q_1` and `Q_3`.

Once you have found these values you subtract:

`Q_3-Q_1`

This is called the interquartile range.

Now you multiply your result by `1.5`

`(Q_3-Q_1) xx 1.5= R`

`R="your result"`

Then you add your result `(R)` to `Q_3`

`R+Q_3`

And subtract `Q_1 - R`

You will have two numbers this will be a range. Any number located outside this range is consider an outlier.
