Please provide the image that accompanies your question.

We are given the following box image:

And are asked for:

Median: Which is clearly marked at the value 80 and corresponds to the value at the center of the distribution that has equal number of values below and above it.

The Maximum is located at the extreme right of the right whisker and is around what looks like the value 98.

The Minimum is marked by the left end of the left whisker which looks like 52.

The First Quartile is marked by the left beginning of the box, and appears to be at around 66 or 67 .

And the Third quartile is marked by the extreme right of the box, which appears to be at the number 82.

If you don't have 66 or 67, try the closest, because the image may not be completely in agreement with the actual values given for you to choose. If you look at the box, the first quartile is clearly not 65 but more to the right of it.
