Drawing a Boxplot

(1) Determine the lower and upper fences: Lower Fence= Q1−1.5(IQR) Upper Fence=Q3+1.5(IQR) where IQR=Q3−Q1 (2) Draw a number line long enough to include the maximum and minimum values. Insert vertical lines at Q1,M, and Q3. Enclose these vertical lines in a box. (3) Label the lower and upper fences with a temporary mark. (4) Draw a line from Q1 to the smallest data value that is larger than the lower fence. Draw a line from Q3 to the largest data value that is smaller than the upper fence. These lines are called whiskers. (5) Plot any data values less than the lower fence or greater than the upper fence as outliers. Outliers are marked with an asterisk (*). Remove the temporary marks labeling the fences.
