Cumulative Frequency and Quartiles

The video tutorial explains how to calculate the median, upper quartile, lower quartile, and interquartile range using a cumulative frequency graph. It begins with an introduction to the graph, followed by detailed steps to find each statistical measure. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of using a ruler for accuracy and highlights the need to read values from the graph correctly.
