Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Medians from the Boxplot
  • Observe the boxplot for both Region A and Region B.
  • The median is represented by the line inside the box of each boxplot.
Step 2: Estimate the Median for Region A
  • For Region A, the median line appears to be at approximately 30%.
Step 3: Estimate the Median for Region B
  • For Region B, the median line appears to be at approximately 40%.

Final Answer

  • The median BA percentage for Region A is approximately 30%.
  • The median BA percentage for Region B is approximately 40%.
