z=(23-25)/4=-.5
look this up. Since -.05<0, look up 0.5 and subtract from 1.
1-0.6915=0.3085
Since this is for each of the three bikes the answer is 0.3085^3

They have done it the way I would do it.
Note that if you have 3 number 1,5,7 the middle is the second, the middle of the first and third one (1+3)/2=2
There are 30 numbers so 3/4(1+30)=23.25
34 is the 23rd one but I want the 23.25th one so go 1/4 of the way from 34 to 36 which is 1/2 then add it to 34.

then how the Q1 was 19 ???

Sir is that method above known ??? I mean in my S1 book they never taught us about this method just find 75% of the no. then if it is not a whole no. then round up and find the corresponding term

I know. I don't like the book method - it is technically incorrect. My method is the statistically correct method.

There is no equation but actually a method. I treat a list as continuous and use
1/4 (n+1) for lower quartile
1/2 (n+1) for median
3/4 (n+1) for upper quartile.
If any of these result in a decimal I interpolate as I did for your question.
