See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Plot: \{24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34\}$

Required

Determine the percentage of those who uses the bus for 27 to 30 mins

The box plot is not given. So, I will make assumptions in order to solve this question.

Assume the following readings from the box plot:

$Total\ Buses= 60$

$27-30\ Minutes = 20\ buses$

Using these assumptions, the required percentage is:

Total = 6

27 to 30 minutes = 2

$Percent = \frac{27\ to\ 30\ mins}{Total} * 100\%$

$Percent = \frac{20}{60} * 100\%$

$Percent = \frac{2000}{60} * \%$

$Percent = 33.33 * \%$
