Here's how to solve this problem:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "**1. Students above 30 in History:**\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "* The box plot shows that 75% of students scored above 30 in History (since 30 is the lower quartile, or Q1).
\n" ); document.write( "* Number of students above 30 in History = 0.75 * 112 = 84 students\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "**2. Students above 30 in Geography:**\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "* The problem states that the number of students above 30 is the same for both tests.
\n" ); document.write( "* Therefore, 84 students scored above 30 in Geography.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "**3. Total students in Geography:**\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "* The box plot shows that 30 is also the lower quartile (Q1) for Geography, meaning 75% of the students scored above 30.
\n" ); document.write( "* Let 'x' be the total number of students who took the Geography test.
\n" ); document.write( "* 0.75 * x = 84
\n" ); document.write( "* x = 84 / 0.75 = 112\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "**Answer:** 112 students completed the Geography Test.
\n" ); document.write( "
