A box plot is a convenient way of graphically depicting groups of numerical data through their five number summaries. This box plot depicts the annual snow depth a Mathsville Ski Resort. The five number summary consists of the minimum value, so in this case it would be 25, the lower quartile (55), the median (78), the higher quartile (101), and the maximum value (130). Therefore, the median snow depth would be around 78.
