I apologize for the error in my previous responses. Let's calculate the correct quartiles for the data set provided (12, 14, 27, 35, 39, 47).

Step 1: Arrange the data in ascending order:
12, 14, 27, 35, 39, 47

Step 2: Calculate the median:
Since there are 6 data points, the median is the average of the 3rd and 4th values.
Median = (27 + 35) / 2 = 31

Step 3: Calculate the lower quartile (Q1):
Lower quartile index = (n+1)/4 = (6+1)/4 = 1.75
Lower quartile index is between the 1st and 2nd values, so we take the average.
Lower quartile = (12 + 14) / 2 = 13

Step 4: Calculate the upper quartile (Q3):
Upper quartile index = 3*(n+1)/4 = 3*(6+1)/4 = 5.25
Upper quartile index is between the 5th and 6th values, so we take the average.
Upper quartile = (39 + 47) / 2 = 43

Therefore, the correct quartiles for the data set are:
Lower quartile (Q1) = 13
Median = 31
Upper quartile (Q3) = 43

Thank you for your patience, and I apologize for the confusion in my earlier responses.
