77, the first quartile is 128, the median is 159, the third quartile is 229, and the maximum is 246.

To make a box-and-whisker plot, draw a number line and mark the minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum. Then draw a box spanning from the first quartile to the third quartile and draw whiskers from the box to the minimum and maximum.

The box-and-whisker plot for this data set would look like:
