The IQR is the length of the box in your box-and-whisker plot. An outlier is any value that lies more than one and a half times the length of the box from either end of the box.
The IQR is the distance between the 1st quartile (25th percentile) and 3rd quartile (75th percentile). To find these numbers you must divide your data set in half, and find the median of each half and that will be your Q1 and Q3.
