Answer:

27, 29, 36, 43, 79

Explanation:

27 = the lowest data point = minimum

29 = quartile 1

36 = median = middle number

43 = quartile 2

79 = highest data point = maximum

A five number summary is a rought idea of what the data set is. you can make this by finding the highest and lowest data point, the middle data point, and quartile 1 and 3 (these are the middle numbers in between the lowest and the median, and the highest and the median).

Hope this helps!
