Waiting times are shown in a correctly drawn histogram with unequal bins (area == count, height in people per minute): 00–1010 min height 1.21.2; 1010–1515 min height 44; 1515–2525 min height 1.81.8; 2525–4545 min height 0.40.4. Assuming the times are spread evenly within each bin, estimate the median waiting time in minutes.
