How to solve the box plot
For these areas we have
Q1 = 2.7 Q3 = 3 median = 2.8 out;ier 2.
Q1 = 2.5 Q3 = 2.7 median = 2.6 out;ier 3.1.
Q1 = 2.5 Q3 = 2.75 median = 2.65 out;ier 1.6
Q1 = 2.4 Q3 = 2.6 median = 2.5
We can see that the median prices in the markets are nearly similar except for the one that is conatined in the first market.
