The median is the value equivalent to the vertical line as shown. Hence the median point is 34

<h3>What is a median?</h3>

The median is defined as the value at the middle after rearrangement.

From the given boxplot, we have the following

The minimum value is equivalent to the lower position of the whisker = 22

The maximum value is equivalent to the upper position of the whisker = 42

The median is the value vertical line in between the box = 34

The lower quartile (Q1) = starting point of the box = 33

Upper quartile (Q3) = end point of the box = 38

For the boxplot, the median is the value equivalent to the vertical line as shown. Hence the median point is 34
