Answer 2

Box plot.

Explanation:

We have been given that the height of a fifth-grade student who is taller than 25% of the other students in his class.

This means that 75% of fifth-grade students are taller than the student.

The heights of students divide the data into four groups.

We know the box-plot represents data into groups: Lower quartile, Median, Upper quartile.

The lower quartile of a data set represents 25% of the data.

Since the height of student is greater than 25% of students, therefore, his height would be 1st quartile and box plot is best for the given data.
