IDUT=I Don't Understand This

No direct answers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Each half of the box and each whisker represents one quarter of the data. So the quarter of the data that is most concentrated is the half-box or whisker that is the shortest, because that represents one quarter of the data with the smallest range.

So my answer would be A?

It would be D, because the whisker on the right is shortest, and it represents the fourth quarter.

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

so shortest=last

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

last like 4th?

OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):

Oh wait @mrabsurd I was right the 1st time because I had clicked D but I accidently said A so I was right YAY!
