Answer

Final Answer: \(\boxed{\text{Third quartile}}\)

Steps

Step 1 :The quartile that represents the data value that is greater than 75% of the data values is the third quartile. This is because the first quartile represents the data value that is greater than 25% of the data values, the second quartile (or median) represents the data value that is greater than 50% of the data values, and the third quartile represents the data value that is greater than 75% of the data values. The fourth quartile does not exist, as quartiles divide the data into four equal parts, so the highest quartile is the third quartile.

Step 2 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{\text{Third quartile}}\)
