    Inter-quartile range

    Step-by-step explanation:

    When you have the quartile, you can use the IQR (interquartile range) to measure the dispersion.

    IQR = Q3 - Q1

    Movies: IQR = 195 - 162 = 33

    Basketball: IQR = 225 - 170 = 55

    Attendance at Basketball is more dispersed/spread out as compared to attendance at Movies
