Answer 3

Go over to the online box-and-whisker plot calculator at the link:

Copy and paste your numbers into the calculator and take a look at the third quartile.

I thought the answer might be 14 but then wondered where the 16 went. You may need to make a hand sketch or think about where the 16 is.
