A quartile is a 1/4 of the values which are arranged in numerical order. So teh first quartile is the lowest set of teh values and is 1/4. Leavign 3/4 about the value.

Royce Meadows · Answer 2

It would be A, since a quartile is one quarter of a data set, so the first quartile is the border between the first and second quarter, therefore 1/4 of the values are less and 3/4 are more.
