Question

Which of the following sets of data fits the box and whisker plot

Answer 1

Answer:

The given option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting and end point of box plot represent the minimum and maximum value respectively. Box starts from the first quartile to the third quartile. A vertical line goes through the box at the median.

From the given box plot we can say that

Minimum value = 1

Maximum value = 10

$Q_1=2$

$Q_2=Median=3$

$Q_3=6$

The set of data in option A is

3, 1, 2, 6, 2, 2, 1, 10, 5, 6, 7

Arrange the data in ascending order.

1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 5, 6, 6, 7, 10

Divide the data in 4 equal parts.

(1, 1), 2,( 2, 2,) 3, (5, 6), 6, (7, 10)

Minimum value = 1

Maximum value = 10

$Q_1=2$

$Q_2=Median=3$

$Q_3=6$

Data in option A fits the box and whisker plot.

Therefore, the correct option is A.
