Question

What does each number on the following box and whisker plot represent?: --------|-----------------|-------|----------------------- 28 34 55 63 98?

Answer 1

--------|-----------------|-------|-----------------------

`28, 34, 55, 63, 98`
We are given the 5-number summary, or minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum.
The minimum is the lowest data value, so it's `28`.

The first quartile is at `25%` of the data, or the "median" of the lower half of data, which is `34`.

The median is the middle number, or `55`.

The third quartile is at `75%` of the data, or the "median" of the upper half of data, which is `63`.

Finally, the maximum is the highest data value, so it's `98`.

Hope this helps!
