Explanation:

Step1: Recall box plot components

In a box plot, the minimum value is represented by the leftmost end of the whisker.

Step2: Identify the minimum from the plot

Looking at the box plot, the left whisker (representing the minimum) extends to the value marked at the bottom of the left whisker. From the vertical axis (y - axis) scale, the left whisker starts at 10 (assuming the scale: each major tick is 20? Wait, no, looking at the axis: 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100. Wait, the left whisker's end is at 10? Wait, no, maybe the scale is such that between 0 and 20, there are 2 intervals? Wait, no, the box plot's left whisker is at 10? Wait, no, looking at the plot, the left whisker (the lower whisker) is at 10? Wait, no, the vertical axis has 0, then 20, 40, 60, 80, 100. Wait, the left whisker (minimum) is at 10? Wait, no, maybe the first tick after 0 is 10? Wait, the box plot's lower whisker (minimum) is at 10? Wait, no, let's re - examine. The left whisker (the line from the box to the minimum) starts at the bottom of the box? No, the box plot has a box with a median line, and whiskers extending from the box to the minimum and maximum. The lower whisker (minimum) is at 10? Wait, no, looking at the plot, the lower whisker (minimum) is at 10? Wait, no, the vertical axis: 0, then 20, 40, 60, 80, 100. Wait, the left whisker (minimum) is at 10? Wait, maybe the scale is 0, 10, 20, 30, 40,...? No, the labels are 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100. So between 0 and 20, there are 2 intervals, so each small tick is 10. So the left whisker (minimum) is at 10? Wait, no, the left whisker's end is at 10? Wait, no, the plot shows the left whisker (minimum) at 10? Wait, no, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, the box plot: the lower whisker (minimum) is at 10? Wait, no, looking at the image, the left whisker (the line from the box to the minimum) is at 10? Wait, no, the correct minimum from the box plot (as per the standard box plot interpretation: the minimum is the value at the end of the lower whisker) is 10? Wait, no, maybe the lower whisker is at 10? Wait, no, let's check again. The vertical axis: 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100. The lower whisker (minimum) is at 10? Wait, no, the first tick after 0 is 10, then 20. So the lower whisker (minimum) is at 10. Wait, no, maybe the minimum is 10? Wait, no, the box plot's lower whisker (minimum) is at 10. Wait, but maybe I misread. Wait, the left whisker (minimum) is at 10? Wait, no, the correct minimum from the box plot (as per the visual) is 10? Wait, no, looking at the plot, the lower whisker (minimum) is at 10. Wait, maybe the answer is 10? Wait, no, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, the box plot: the lower whisker (minimum) is at 10.

Wait, no, let's look again. The vertical axis: 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100. The left whisker (minimum) is at 10? Wait, no, the left whisker (the line from the box to the minimum) is at 10? Wait, no, the box is between 30 - 50? No, the box has a median at 40. The lower whisker (minimum) is at 10? Wait, no, the left whisker (minimum) is at 10.

Wait, maybe the correct minimum value is 10.

Answer:

10
