Q3 + 1.5 IQR

Or

Q1 - 1.5 IQR

They are the limits.

If any value is outside these set boundries then it is an outlier.

-put the points into a spreadsheet.
-then boxplot them
-the boxplot will show you if there are any outliers
This method is quicker then using the rules :)

Sorry Hye, I forgot to read "CAS" in your question. I skimmed through it.

Okay doing what ORSA said will show you the boxplot. However it wont show outliers.

You have to do Mod Box Plot, and then it will show outliers.

In this question, there isn't any outliers btw, and the solutions are flawed.

No it doesn't. Have a try, it wont show ALL of them though. (If there are any)

Yeah I'm pretty sure outliers will be shown on the CAS if there are any. In this example, there's definitely no outliers.

Theres even a tick the box function to show outliers so the CAS doesn't lie.. only the question does
