Step-by-step explanation:

Arrange data set

19, 4, 17, 3, 6, 5,5, 3, 11, 12, 3, 7, 15, 8, 8, 10,5, 3, 12, 41, 36

in ascending order

3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8, 10, 11, 12, 12, 15, 17, 19, 36, 41

The median is [tex]Q_2=8[/tex]

[tex]Q_1=\dfrac{4+5}{2}=4.5[/tex]  

[tex]Q_3=\dfrac{12+15}{2}=13.5[/tex]

Thus, the interquartile range is

[tex]Q_3-Q_1=13.5-4.5=9[/tex]
