    Elena had the greater mean test score

    Betsy and Elena has the same median score

    Elena had the greater interquartile range

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Elena scored 75, 85, 85, 90, and 95

    The mean is (75+85+85+90+95) / 5 = 430/5 = 86

    The median is the middle number when in order from smallest to largest = 85

    The IQR is IQ3 - IQ1 =

    The IQ3 is the middle of the upper half which is (90+95) / 2 = 92.5

    IQ1 = (75+85) / 2 = 80

    IQ3 - IQ1 = 92.5-80 = 12.5

    Betsy scored 84, 84, 85, 86, and 86

    The mean is (84+84+85+86+86) / 5=425/5 = 85

    The median is the middle number when in order from smallest to largest = 85

    The IQR is IQ3 - IQ1 =

    The IQ3 is the middle of the upper half which is (86+86) / 2 = 86

    IQ1 = (84+84) / 2 = 8

    IQ3 - IQ1 = 86-84 = 2

    Elena had the greater mean test score

    Betsy and Elena has the same median score

    Elena had the greater interquartile range
