Explanation:

Step1: Recall the properties of a box - plot

A box - plot divides the data into four equal parts (quartiles). The first quartile ($Q_1$) represents the 25th percentile, the median ($Q_2$) represents the 50th percentile, and the third quartile ($Q_3$) represents the 75th percentile.

Step2: Identify the position of 60 on the box - plot

In a box - plot, the line inside the box is the median. If we assume that 60 is the median (the line that splits the box into two parts). The data values less than the median are in the lower half of the data set.

Answer:

50%
