Explanation:

Hello!

I didn't find the exact box plot for this exercise but I've found one that'll help you identify the required values

When constructing a box plot the box lower and upper limits are defined by the first and third quartiles and the line separating it in two represents the median.

In this case, the box is lying on the side, the first quartile is represented by the left side of the box. If you see the graphic this one corresponds to 25.

The median, as said, is represented by the line drawn inside the box, it is not necessarily in its middle but it will always be inside it.

Watching the example, the median is 33

I hope this helps!
