(Choice E)

18

The correct option is (C) 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

The five-number summary for the number of teams in each of Brad's fantasy football leagues is as follows:

Minimum: 4

Q₁: 7

Median: 10

Q₃: 14

Maximum: 18

The minimum value is the smallest value in the data set.

The first quartile (Q₁) is the value that is less than 75% of the observations.

The median is the middle most value of the data set. It is the value that is less than 50% of the observations.

The third quartile (Q₃) is the value that is less than 25% of the observations.

And the maximum value is the largest value in the data set.

So, the five-number summary suggests that about 50% of Brad's fantasy football leagues have fewer than 10 teams.

Thus, the correct option is (C).
