Question

what percentage of the data values represented on a box plot falls between the minimum value and the lower quartile? 33 1/3% 25% 50% 75%

Explanation:

A box - plot divides the data into four equal parts (quartiles). The lower quartile (\(Q_1\)) is the value below which \(25\%\) of the data lies. The minimum value is the smallest data point. The region between the minimum value and the lower quartile represents one - fourth of the data set. Since one - fourth is equivalent to \(25\%\) (because \(\frac{1}{4}=0.25 = 25\%\)).

Answer:

\(25\%\)
