Explanation / Answer

Since 271.8 is the first quantile 25% of of all values in the data are less than 271.8 and similarly 387.4 is the median of the data which imples that 50% of the values are below it or equal to it by defintion.And 529.1 is the 3rd quantile which implies 75% of all values are less than 529.1.Hence it can be said that option B is correct.
