We have,

Lower Quartile:
\quad Q_1 =
Value of
\left(\displaystyle\frac{n+1}{4}\right)^{th}
observation
\Rightarrow\quad Q_1 =
Value of
\left(\displaystyle\frac{30+1}{4}\right)^{th}
observation
\Rightarrow\quad Q_1 =
Value of
\left(7.75\right)^{th}
observation
\Rightarrow\quad Q_1 =
Value of
\left(7\right)^{th}
observation +
\displaystyle\frac{3}{4}
(Value of
8^{th}
observation - Value of
7^{th}
observation)
\Rightarrow \quad Q_1 = 300 + \displaystyle\frac{3}{4}(320 - 300) = 315
Middle Quartile (Median):
Q_2
= A.M. of
\left(\displaystyle\frac{n}{2}\right)^{th}
and
\left(\displaystyle\frac{n}{2} + 1\right)^{th}
observation
\Rightarrow \quad Q_2 = \displaystyle\frac{\mbox{value of } 15^{th} \mbox{ observation} + \mbox{value of } 16^{th} \mbox{ observation}}{2}
\Rightarrow \quad Q_2 = \displaystyle\frac{380 + 400}{2} = 390
Upper Quartile:
\quad Q_3 =
Value of
3\left(\displaystyle\frac{n+1}{4}\right)^{th}
observation
\Rightarrow\quad Q_3 =
Value of
3\left(\displaystyle\frac{30+1}{4}\right)^{th}
observation
\Rightarrow\quad Q_3 =
Value of
23.25^{th}
observation
\Rightarrow\quad Q_3 =
Value of
23^{rd}
observation +
\displaystyle\frac{1}{4}(
Value of
24^{th}
Observation - Value
of
23^{rd}
observation
)
\Rightarrow\quad Q_3 = 480 + \displaystyle\frac{1}{4}(490 - 480) = 482.50
\therefore \quad Q_1+Q_2+Q_3 = 315+390+482.50 = 1187.50

Explanation
Quartile Deviation (
{ Q }_{ D }
) means the semi variation between the upper quartile or third quartile (
{ Q }_{ 3 }
) and lower quartile or first quartile (
{ Q }_{ 1 }
) in a distribution.
Formula =
{ Q }_{ D }=\cfrac { { Q }_{ 3 }-{ Q }_{ 1 } }{ 2 }
Given,
{ Q }_{ D }
= 10
and
{ Q }_{ 3 }
= 35
10=\cfrac { 35-{ Q }_{ 1 } }{ 2 }
{ Q }_{ 1 }
= 15

Middle Quartile (Medium):
We have,

Explanation
{\textbf{Step-1: Use mean formula and find the mean.}}
\Rightarrow \sigma^2 = \dfrac{1}{n} \sum x_i^2 - \bar{(x)}^2
\Rightarrow n = 50, \sum x_i = 2 +4+6+8+...+100
{\text{We know that,}}
\Rightarrow \bar {x} = \dfrac{\sum x_i}{n}
\Rightarrow \bar {x} = \dfrac{2 +4+6+8+...+100}{50}
\Rightarrow \bar {x} = \dfrac{50 \times 51}{50}
[\because \sum 2n = n(n+1)]
\Rightarrow \bar {x} = 51
{\textbf{Step-2: Put the values in variance formula.}}
\Rightarrow \sigma^2 = \dfrac{1}{n} \sum x_i^2 - \bar{(x)}^2
= \dfrac{1}{50} (2^2 +4^2+6^2+8^2+...+100^2) - {(51)}^2
= \dfrac{1}{50} [({2.1})^2 +({2.2})^2+({2.3})^2+({2.4})^2+...+({2.50})^2] - {(51)}^2
= \dfrac{1}{50} 2^2[({1})^2 +({2})^2+({3})^2+({4})^2+...+({50})^2] - {(51)}^2 ...(1)
{\text{But,}}
\Rightarrow ({1})^2 +({2})^2+({3})^2+({4})^2+...+({n})^2 = \dfrac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}
\Rightarrow ({1})^2 +({2})^2+({3})^2+({4})^2+...+({50})^2 = \dfrac{50(50+1)(2 \times 50+1)}{6}
\Rightarrow ({1})^2 +({2})^2+({3})^2+({4})^2+...+({50})^2 = \dfrac{50(51)(101)}{6}
{\text{Equation (1) become,}}
= \dfrac{1}{50} 2^2[\dfrac{50(51)(101)}{6}] - {(51)}^2
= 34 \times 101 -2601

Explanation
From the given pictograph, the total tickets coolected by Lata, Kalyan, Vaishnavi are
13
.
Given that one ticket symbol represents
4
stamps.
Therefore, total number of stamps collected by
Lata, Kalyan, Vaishnavi are
13\times4=52
.
Given that, total number of stamps collected by four pupils is
80
.
Therefore the number of stamps collected by Anjali = Total number of stamps collected by four pupil - number of stamps collected by three pupils (excluding Anjali)
=80-52=28
Hence, the number of tickets collected by Anjali are
\dfrac{28}4=7

From the given graph, Dinesh saved a total of

rupees during January month and
An amount of
80
rupees during April month.
Let the savings in February be
x
rupees.
Given that, that amount of money saved in March and February are same.
Therefore, savings in March month
=x
rupees.
Given that, the total amount saved in 4 months
=730
rupees.
\implies 160+x+x+80=730
\implies 240+2x=730
\implies 2x=730-240=490
\implies x=\dfrac{490}2=245
Therefore, savings in March month
=245
rupees.

Explanation
The given bar graph shows the rainfall at six different locations 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 in 3 different months November, April, and September, and
the height of each bar for three months at each location gives us the amount of rainfall.
\Rightarrow
From the heights of bars that rainfall in the month of November is always lower than rainfall in the months of April and September.

total number of values
n=7
Standard deviation is given by
SD=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i-\bar x)^2}{n-1}}
\implies SD=\sqrt{\dfrac{(1-7)^2+(3-7)^2+(5-7)^2+(7-7)^2+(9-7)^2+(11-7)^2+(13-7)^2}{7-1}}
\implies SD=\sqrt{\dfrac{36+16+4+0+4+16+36}{6}}
\implies SD=\sqrt{\dfrac{112}{6}}
\implies SD=\sqrt{18.6667}=4.32
Therefore the standard deviation for the given values is
