Explanation / Answer

Correct Answers:

30 people have cholestrol levels at or below approximately 300

The 50th percentile for the cholestrol levels in the sample is about 200

The maximum cholestrol level is a little over 900

Reason: 3rd quartile is about 300, so 75% of 40 = 30 people have 300 or lower levels.

Median appears to be about 200

Maximum value is a little over 900.
