@Data_LG2 It is either A or D. Minimum=smallest..Maximum=Largest. Minimum=24 Maximum=36. I just don't knowhow to do the Median cause there's 2 numbers in middle. would I add them together like.. 28+32=60/2 which = 30? so 30 would be median. Idk

Directrix (directrix):

The minimum is the smallest plotted point as the maximum is the largest. The median is marked with a vertical pair within the actual "box."

Yes I just figured that out. Thank you for confirming, Whenever I was taling about the Median. abut subtraction then division. was that correct?

Directrix (directrix):

Finding the median is not an issue here. You are given the box plot and asked to read off a median that somebody else computed.

Directrix (directrix):

The median is given to be 30 on the box plot.

No way is the minimum 24 when there is a data point at 8.

You are welcome.
