Required information

The American Society of PeriAnesthesia Nurses (ASPAN; www.aspan.org) is a national organization serving nurses practicing in ambulatory surgery, preanesthesia, and postanesthesia care. The organization's membership is listed below.

Explanation / Answer

The data is arranged in ascending order. The table is as below

Sum of the members = 19453.

(a) Therefore Average = 19453/49 = 397

Median: The middle value. Here n = 49. Therefore the median is (n+1)/2 = 50/2 = 25th value which is 332

Standard deviation is given by the formula Sqrt(Sum[ x-mean]2/n-1) = Sqrt(4720522/48) = 313.6

(c) First Quartile = 25% of n = 0.25 * 49 = 12.25th value or the 13th value = 150

Third Quartile = 75% of n = 0.75 * 49 = 36.75th value or the 37th value = 500
