    States the interquartile range is 4 hours.

    A 1-point response demonstrates partial understanding of the standards and claim by doing one of the following:

    • Plots the box plot with minimum value of  hours, a Q1 value of  hours, a median value of  hours, a Q3 value of  hours, and a maximum value of  hours.
