2. A medication to treat high blood pressure causes side effects in 37% of the people who take it. Suppose 440 people who take the medication are randomly selected. a) Use the Central Limit Theorem for Proportions to establish normality. b) What is the probability fewer than 154 of the 440 people have side effects from the medication? Use Tables. c) Find the 3rd Quartile. Use Technology. Show keystrokes and round your answer to 4 decimal places.

I need help with just part c. Someone on here already answered it for me but I'm really confused as there are steps missing and I'm not sure what to put in the calculator.

 "

  • The first quartile separates the lowest 25% of the observations from the higher 75% of the observations. The first quartile is denoted by Q1.
  • The second quartile separates the lower 50% of the observations from the higher 50% of the observations. The second quartile is denoted by Q2.The second quartile is same as median.
  • The third quartile separates the lowest 75% of the observations from the higher 25% of the observations. The third quartile is denoted by Q3.

The third quartile can obtained as follows...."

Third Quartile is 1 somehow, and I don't understand how it is. 

2. A medication to treat high blood pressure causes side effects in 37% of the people who
take it. Suppose 440 people who take the medication are randomly selected.
