Given:
A box-and-whisker plot of data set.
To find:
The percentage of the data values that are greater than 80.
Solution:
From the given box-and-whisker plot, it is clear that:
Minimum value = 8
First quartile = 60
Median = 68
Third quartile = 80
Maximum value = 92
We know that the 25% the data value are greater than or equal to third quartile because the third quartile divides the data in 75% to 25% and 80 is the third quartile.
Therefore, about 25% of the data values that are greater than 80.
