the far left verticle bar represents the minimum of the sample that is not an outlier, the far left edge of the box is the 1st quartile (25th percentile of sample), the middle bar in box is the median (middle number of sample), the right edge of the box is 3rd quartile (75th percentile of sample), and the far right verticle bar is the maximum of the sample that is not an outlier. Any dots outside of the verticle bars are outliers as demonstrated by: Outlier < Q1 - (IQRx1.5)

Outlier > Q3 + (IQRx1.5)

as for solving a box and whisker plot problem, you will need to be more descriptive on what the problem is asking.

Can you find the mean median mode and range on a box and whisker plot?

Oh, dude, finding the mean, median, mode, and range on a box and whisker plot is like trying to make a sandwich with a hammer. The box and whisker plot already shows you the median (that's the line in the box) and the range (from whisker to whisker). The mean and mode aren't typically shown on a box plot because they're off doing their own thing, not invited to the box and whisker party.
