Is it A,B,C or D?

Answer 1

D.)

Explanation:

Lowest point in the data is 12 and highest point in the data is 29 which is why the whiskers extend from 12 to 29. The line in the box is placed at 23 because this is the median. Lastly the box itself is extending from 17 to 28 because it represents the three quartiles. 17 being the first Quartile, 23 being the second Quartile (aka the median), and 28 being the third Quartile.
