    A box plot contains 5 number summary. The information gathered from the box plot are:

    1) minimum number

    2) 1st quartile

    3) median

    4) 3rd quartile

    5) maximum

    Since the box plot of the collected data is not shown, I can only say that the maximum number will be affected by the error.

    maximum number of 48 should have been maximum number 50.
