Use the image to answer the question.

An illustration shows a number line ranging from 0 to 10 in one unit increments. Each number is labeled and represented with a tick mark. A box plot is placed above the number line. The box is divided into two sections.
The first section of the box plot extends from 1.5 to 4. The second section of the box plot extends from 4 to 5.5. A line starts at the left side of the first section of the box plot and extends from 1.5 to 0, where it ends with a short vertical line. Another line starts at the right side of the second section of the box plot and extends from 5.5 to 10, where it ends with a short vertical line.

Brinda constructs this box plot to show the number of cousins her friends have. What is the median of the data?

Answer 1

In a box plot, the median is represented by the line that divides the box into two sections. In the box plot you described, the sections of the box are from 1.5 to 4 and from 4 to 5.5. The median, therefore, is at the boundary where these sections meet, which is 4.

The answer is:

**4**
