Answer 1

From the box plot, the upper quartile is 45 minutes

75 % of other students represents the upper quartile of the distribution

If the student is slower than 75% of the time taken by other students, this means the student took more time than 45 minutes

Hence, the correct answer from the options is 46 minutes
