Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
The third quartile can be found in the \((\frac{3N}{4})^{th}\) position
= \((\frac{3 \times 100}{4})^{th}\) position
This is found in the class 14 - 16.
The upper class boundary = 16.5
The third quartile can be found in the \((\frac{3N}{4})^{th}\) position

This is found in the class 14 - 16.
The upper class boundary = 16.5
