In a dataset, the 5-number summary includes the minimum data value, the data value of the first quartile, the median data value or data value of the second quartile, the data value of the third quartile, and the maximum data value. These 5 data values can be visualized as a box and whisker plot.

In a box plot, the minimum and maximum data values represent the lower and upper whiskers in the graph, and the median is designated as the center of the box in the chart. The first quartile and third quartile data values are represented by the lower and upper edges of the box in the box and whisker plot.

This 5-number summary is handy for a quick understanding of the spread of the data and the identification of any outliers.

Consider an example of a dataset containing the number of donuts sold in a shop. To obtain the 5-number summary, the researcher can initially arrange the values in the dataset in ascending order to determine the minimum, maximum, and median data values. Then, using the correct formulae, the researcher can determine the data values of the first and third quartiles. Further, these values can be used to construct a box and whisker plot.
