Question

A manager drew this box-and-whisker plot to represent the ages of her 23 employees. Every employee is a different age.

Answer 1

Answer:  6

Explanation:

The left and right edges of the box represent Q1 and Q3 respectively

Q1 = first quartile

Q3 = third quartile

The boxplot shows Q3 = 54

The span from Q3 to the max represents exactly 25% of the population.

Take 25% of the 23 employees

0.25*23 = 5.75

Rounding to the nearest whole number leads to 6.
