A number line ranges from 2 to 9.5 in increments of 0.5. A boxplot is placed above the number line. The box is divided into two sections. The first box extends from 4 to 5.5. The second box extends from 5.5 to 7. A line extends from each end of the box, terminating at 2 on the left and terminating at 9.5 on the right.

This boxplot represents a set of data that is skewed to the right. The first box (from 4 to 5.5) contains the middle 50% of the data, while the second box (from 5.5 to 7) represents the next 25%. The data is more spread out in the second box, as seen by the longer line extending from 5.5 to 7.

The line extending from each end of the box represents the minimum and maximum values in the data set. In this case, the minimum value is 2 and the maximum value is 9.5.

Overall, this boxplot shows that the data is mostly concentrated in the range 4 to 7, with some outliers on the lower end (minimum value of 2) and upper end (maximum value of 9.5).
