### Box Plot Analysis of Commute Times

#### Introduction
Judy asked her coworkers about their typical commute time. This provided data was then summarized into a box plot. 

#### Box Plot Description
The box plot shows the distribution of commute times for Judy's coworkers. Below is a detailed explanation of the box plot components:

1. **Minimum Value (Lower Extreme)**: This is the smallest data value in the set. In this box plot, the lower extreme is positioned at 10 minutes.
2. **First Quartile (Q1)**: This is the median of the lower half of the dataset. It represents the 25th percentile. It is roughly located at 20 minutes.
3. **Median (Q2)**: This value divides the dataset into two equal halves. Here, the median is represented by the line inside the box and is located at 30 minutes.
4. **Third Quartile (Q3)**: This is the median of the upper half of the dataset, representing the 75th percentile. It is approximately located at 35 minutes in this box plot.
5. **Maximum Value (Upper Extreme)**: This is the largest data value in the set, represented at 40 minutes.
6. **Whiskers**: These indicate the range of the data sets excluding outliers, stretching from the minimum value to Q1 and from Q3 to the maximum value.

#### Question
**What is the lower extreme commute time for Judy's coworkers?**

#### Answer
The lower extreme, which is the smallest value in the dataset, is 10 minutes.

Type your answer below:
[Input Box]
