If the median of a list of numbers is m, the first quartile of the list is the median of the numbers in the list that are less than m. What is the first quartile of the list of numbers 42, 24, 30, 22, 26, 27, 33 and 35 ?	Choose one:  A) 33  B) 28  C) 27  D) 24  E) 25

Rationale: it is given that a quartile is the middle number of all numbers less than median . . so lets arrange the number in ascending order - 42 , 24 , 30 , 22 , 26 , 27 , 33 and 35 22 , 24 , 26 , 27 , 30 , 33 , 35 , 42 , . . . numbers less than median are 22 , 24 , 26 , 27 . . the median of these numbers = center of 24 and 26 = 25 e
