Here are statistics for the length of some insect jumps in inches: the mean is 35 inches the median is 29 inches the standard deviation is about 6.2 inches the IQR is 2.5 inches How does each statistic change if the length of the jumps are measured in feet instead of inches?

There are 12 inches in 1 feet, so we need to divide all the given data by 12.


  • the mean is 35 inches, so it is \frac{35}{12} = 2.92  feet
  • the median is 29 inches, so it is \frac{29}{12} = 2.42  feet
  • the standard deviation is about 6.2 inches, so it is \frac{6.2}{12} = 0.52 feet.
  • the IQR is 2.5 inches, so it is \frac{2.5}{12} = 0.2 feet.
